SLIDEOUT ROOMS AND LEVELING
Checking Dipstick
The hydraulic oil level is checked with a
dipstick built into the breather/filler cap on top of
the oil reservoir, which is part of the hydraulic
pump/manifold assembly.
NOTE: Always clean away any dirt and debris
from the top of the reservoir before
removing the breather cap to avoid entry
of debris and contamination of hydraulic
oil in the reservoir, which could lead to
pump failure or other problems.
The oil level should be between the two marks
on the breather cap dipstick shown in the
following photo.
NOTE: Overfilling the hydraulic reservoir can
cause leakage of oil through the breather
cap.
Hydraulic Fluid Recommendation
HWH
®
specialty hydraulic fluid or Dexron
®
III automatic transmission fluid is recommended
for use in this system.
DO NOT USE brake fluid or hydraulic jack
oil, which can damage the seals and cause leaks.
