Lippert in wall slide system valuable info

My new TT has this system and there were no manuals in the packet. I asked the guy in the shop at the Dealer how to retract the slide in an emergency and he said I would have to cut out portions of the interior wall. That answer made my decision to never let them touch my TT! I did my homework and would like to share the info here. The pdf file is a manual and the youtube video shows how to disengage the motors and retract the slide in emergency situations.

    also if you have a lippert frame would it be safe to assume that they use a lippert slide mech to, or mix n match components one mfg to another.


    There's another style Lippert slide mechanism on Keystone trailers. It has a geared rod under the slide. The Schwintek has geared tracks on the side of the slide and is supposed to be less heavy.

    Pretty easy to tell which mechanism is being used.

    Did Lippert buy out Schwintek?

  • Thank you! Hope it's something we never need to disengage but still good to know!
  • Hmmmmm... I thought the web addresses would automatically become links. Oh well just cut and paste into the command line on your web browser.
