To ensure the long life of your slideout system, read and follow these few simple procedures.
SERVICE TROUBLESHOOTING The Lippert 2 x 3 Slideout System is only one of four inter-related slideout room system components. These four components are as follows: chassis, slideout room, coach and Lippert 2 x 3 Slideout System. Each one needs to function correctly with the others or misalignment problems will occur. Every coach has it’s own personality and what may work to fix one coach may not work on another even if the symptoms appear to be the same.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR ADJUSTMENT OF ROOM. The Lippert 2 x 3 Slideout System can be timed and fine-tuned for optimum performance. In the event the travel of either side of this two-rail system should be out of time, follow this process for re-timing the slide-out room. Note: When addressing issues regarding your slide-out room, remember to relay the information from the OUTSIDE of the coach. This note will help to standardize the information needed to be relayed to a service station or technical service at LCI.
