MANUAL ROOM RETRACTION PROCEDURE
(USE ONLY WHEN THE ROOM WILL NOT RETRACT WITH THE ROOM CONTROLS SWITCH)
OVERVIEW - The room can be retracted manually if a hydraulic or electrical failure prevents the
room from being retracted using the ROOM CONTROL SWITCH. For normal retract sequence see the
ROOM RETRACT PROCEDURE.
1. Locate the HYDRAULIC PUMP/MANIFOLD unit in an exterior storage compartment.
2. Open the SOLENOID VALVES by turning the “T” HANDLES counterclockwise.
NOTE: The “T” HANDLE may turn easily at first but will become more difficult to turn as an internal
spring is compressed. Be sure to open both valves completely (about six turns of “T” HANDLE).
NOTE: The room may move slightly as the SOLENOID VALVES are opened and internal pressure is
released.
3. Manually push the room in from the outside at the floor level. This may require assistance from a
second individual.
4. Once the room is pushed into place, close the SOLENOID VALVE “T” HANDLES before moving the
vehicle to prevent the room from extending while driving.
5. The system should be repaired before using again.
MAINTENANCE OIL LEVEL
It is important that all rooms are fully retracted before checking the hydraulic oil level. To check the oil supply,
remove the breather cap from the top of the hydraulic oil reservoir. The oil level should be approximately one
inch below the top of the reservoir when adequately filled. Use DEXRON II or a high quality multi-purpose
automatic transmission fluid.
WINDOWS
All the windows that open in the recreational vehicle are operated by sliding them back and forth. To operate,
pivot the latch to release it from the locked position, and slide the window to open. When closing, slide the
window fully closed, and pivot the latch back to the fully locked position. The screens will also slide open and
closed if required for an emergency exit. Check window sealant during normal coach washing and as per the
maintenance guide.
WARNING: To avoid exhaust gas entry into the motorhome, keep windows closed when the
chassis or generator engines are running.
