Hi, 2008 GULF BREEZE 26 RKS Travel Trailer.

Trying to find the manual override for the slide-out, in case the switch/motor goes bad.

I've searched everywhere, in the camper and on the Internet, including this website. Of course, owner's manual is of no help. We purchased this unit used.

Can you guys give me a few pointers as to where to look for the slide out manual crank?

I don't see many Gulf Breeze (2006-2010) on the campgrounds here in Eastern Canada.

Thanks!

Marc

I have never seen a Travel Trailer that did not have one, that said it is on the motor. Find the motor and you will find the override.

Can you grab a picture of the slide. My mine slide in my last RV, it was above the slide inside behind a valance. And the mega-slide it was on the opposite side of the trailer underneath.

Well, Schwintek slides do not have manual cranks. You have to get on a ladder and unhook the motors by going in past the seals, loosening a set screw, and lifting up the motor to disengage it. You have to do this on both sides of the slide. Then you can manually push the slide in and then you have to brace it on the inside to keep it from rolling out when travelling.

LOOK CLOSELY AT ALL RELATED EQUIPMENT, Take PICS, AND If at all possible, find a BRAND/MODEL#, / Then you can search for/ download related Owner Manuals, Service, Parts, ETC. Or PICS will help verify Identity while searching. LUCK
