Winnebago SightSeer - Checking Hydraulic Oil Level

SECTION 10 –
SLIDEOUT ROOMS AND LEVELING
10-12
NOTE: If the leveling jacks should fail to retract,
see “Troubleshooting” and “Control
Panel Jumper Instructions” in the
Leveling System Operator’s Manual
included in your InfoCase.
Leveling System Emergency
Retraction
If the leveling jacks still will not retract after
using tips from the troubleshooting section in
your leveling system operator manual, you may
disengage the emergency brake. The leveling
jacks will automatically retract.
If you needed to disengage the emergency
brake in order to retract the jacks, it is
recommended that you take your RV into an
authorized Winnebago Industries
®
dealership for
a complete leveling system inspection before
using again.
In The Event Of Accidental Jack
Extension
1. Bring the vehicle to a safe and complete stop
as soon as possible.
2. Turn the leveling systems power switch on
and press the “All Up” switch.
3. Visually inspect the vehicle undercarriage for
any problems.
4. See the Leveling System Operator’s Manual
supplied in your InfoCase for troubleshooting
instructions or operating the leveling system
if jacks fail to retract or any other functions
fail.
CHECKING HYDRAULIC OIL
LEVEL
See the Leveling System Operator’s Manual
in your InfoCase for complete maintenance
instructions and information.
All maintenance should be done as part of the
normal servicing of the coach.
The hydraulic oil level should be checked
when the vehicle is first purchased, and then
twice a year - or more often if an oil leak develops
in the system.
The hydraulic pump/reservoir is located
inside a compartment behind the driver side front
tire. In certain models, an access panel must be
removed to access the pump/reservoir.
NOTE: To get an accurate indication of oil level,
Leveling Jacks must be UP.
Checking Hydraulic Oil Level
The hydraulic oil level is checked visually by
inspecting the hydraulic oil reservoir. Always
keep the hydraulic oil level full (up to the FILL
line on the reservoir).
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.
NOTICE
• Do not try to drive vehicle unless
“TRAVEL” light is glowing with ignition
switch on.
• Do not try to drive the vehicle until the
air suspension system has built up
sufficient pressure if you have used
the coach leveling system or have
used the DUMP button to manually
exhaust the air suspension system.
• Do not rely only upon the warning
lights to indicate when jacks are up. It
is the owner’s responsibility to check
that all jacks are up before moving the
coach.
