Purchased: August 2023 - still works GREAT!I kzread.infoUgkxxsUnXhGsSJLim_XnMHyQK0u3XVaW-CGn live in a studio and during the summer it gets scorching hot - really old building with no ac units. I can’t express how EASY it was to install. This unit has been a life savior during the summer and some days during other seasons where it can still be a bit warm at night. In this small place is my friend, a husky, poodle mix and myself. We need AC - lolI don’t use the dehumidifier option - I’m not sure if it will leak in my house, since I did not install the small draining hose that came with it. May look into it late but I don’t worry about much humidity in the apartment. I don’t understand why the negative reviews since all things mentioned, I personally did not find issues with. Definitely worth it!

Eight days before our Maiden Voyage he was killed at work in a construction accident. 😢 I am now trying to learn & do all of this pretty much on my own, but it is a lot & it is hard for just one woman.

Think of the journey and adventure, especially if you DON'T take it on. Join the Escapees RV Club and connect with other single women and men RV'ers and VERY helpful couples.

Here is my tip... Learn to do your own RV maintenance and use a good car maintenance management program ( I use Automotive Wolf car care software ) to track and monitor it all. It also tracks all my parts, expenses and creates a detailed vehicle maintenance log. After RV'ing for over 10 years I've saved thousands by doing most of the maintenance myself and there is a lot of it on an RV! A small roof leak can cost you thousands in repairs so I check my roof at least twice a year. Keep on top of the maintenance and you'll save money and be RV'ing for years :)

The Schwintek gears need to be lubricated too (not the track, as you pointed out). You use that same CRC Power Lube with PTFE, you bend the straw nozzle into a U-shape then spray the gears (top and bottom) on each side.

Dont forget to mention about the craptastic roofs some trailers have. Ours just shredded off, and it has eletrical bugs after a tire blew shredding the underskirting. $32,000 camper owned for 3 years and now totaled. To be fair, she does get a lot of highways miles.

I actually just purchased a keystone hideout and I was wondering how I'd go about cleaning the rust on the long drive bolt things lol, Should I take a wire brush and clean in then use some sort of rust dissolver then can I paying it with some spray paint or would that make the layers too thick and cause issues with paint chips or hiding rust..I feel as though I should give them some TLC before I really hit the road

It would be nice to see you take care of a slide that isn't rack and pinion. My rails actually have teeth but I assume they would also need lubing every so often.

I have a Winnebago Class A with Kwikee FLS digisync system. Is there a proper way to lubricate the rams?

A nother thing , if you have a auto lever system. Make sure the slide is all the way in before leveling or releveling. If parked on soft ground. Also on my Coachman Chaperal the seal under the slide was to wide and got caught in the rollers tearing the seal. We found this after driving in the rain. We was given a new seal to install. Sounds like a common problem.

I guessing that low voltage on the battery(s) will cause the motors on the slides to draw excessive current overheating the motor internal windings, and causing premature failure?

BIG THANK YOU to Keystone RV et al , Got on here a day after "almost" finishing the USED monster Dutchman 5th wheel "flushing" adding anti-freeze and slid the dining room "in" BUT not all the way... it resisted on the far side so I stopped using the rocker switch button immediately. This one side still has 4 inches to move in flush. IF, there is a slightly bent /rack can it still be retracted or replaced somehow? Now I can peruse your handy info as I plan to have this dilemma fixed b4 freeze up. Hoping it is only a sandal/ (flip flop) when I return with my clean rag, "CRC" RV "Power Lube" rack/pinion spray, "CRC" battery corrosion prevention and high hopes this will not be too costly and time consuming.

Also, if a Swintek style...ensure you HOLD the button at LEAST 5 seconds after it's fully out or in. The motors must "synch" again. If you just let go right when it stops moving they could stop at slightly different positions and bind the slide the next time you go to open or close it. Some with your power awning...won't hurt anything at all.

Ohh, this is information which is great to know. I'm not certain we must always roll the awning entirely out though. I think maybe we have flexibility in how far out we can roll the awning. Basically, it would be very nice if we didn't have to roll out the entire awning. Same for slides it would be great if everything working fine with slide only partially out. But maybe it just can't be done. But I think Awnings can still be fine with only partially rolled out? Thanks

Hello guys, Love the info you give out. So my question to you guys if you can elaborate about the slide out supports. I bought my self a 2014 Keystone Outback and am currently living out of it. I have my slide outs out most of the time. My buddy who’s been Doing RV stuff for most his life. Swares by the “RV supports” because they need to be supported if they are left out for extended periods of times and will brake down if they are not supported. What do I do?

Hi, Thank you for your video! I have had my RV for about 5 years. I was not aware the slide needs to be all the way in or all the way out. I left it many times about halfway. Now under the dinette seats, there is a musty smell. I ripped out the carpet under both seats, cleaned thoroughly with baking soda, vinegar, tea tree oil, and bought an air dryer. I open everything up when I leave and put on an electric fan. When it is closed up it starts to smell musty again. Any suggestions?

Have to find the source of the mold and eliminate it. If you have never checked your silicon sealant on the RV find a credible rv dealership to do a pressure leak test on the RV. Make sure that water is not coming in from somewhere else. Another thing you can do if you are sure that water is not coming in is roof vent covers. I recommend the MaxAirII, we have a video on the different types. Installing them will allow air to circulate in your RV while it is sitting without rain coming in the roof vent

You said not to step on the slide when it isn't all the way out, what about sitting on the couch or at the table when the slide is all the way in, like when traveling? My Jayco Seneca has the same rack and pinion slide mechanism on the slide that contains the couch and dinette. It also has 4 seat belts at the dinette and 3 on the couch. It would seem that it could tolerate people sitting here while traveling, but I often wonder about it.

Our slide out motor kept stopping on its way in and there plastic Shaving at the bottom of one side. What’s the problem? I got 2016 KeyStone Bullet trailer

Some slides use plastic ramps at the bottom. Get that looked at. Could be an alignment issue

You didn’t speak to the Norco/Accu-slide cable driven systems. Do you recommend lubing the cables on them? If do, with what?? Thanks.

I need the people to speak on the slide out jacks no or go I’ve done research on the jacks everyone seems happy!

If you're speaking of the jacks that you place under the slide out room to "stabilize" them, we say "No!" The use of slide out room jacks can void your warranty and the manufacturer of the unit says NOT to use them. They put pressure on the bottom of the slide and cause the slide room to become misaligned. They also will reduce the amount of seal you get on the top of the slide out room and could cause your slide out room to leak.

If they needed to be used they're come with it. The fact a dealership or service center is telling you NOT to buy something should be indicator enough.

they are designed to have that weight on the arms...if you take off the weight on the arms and you run the slide room in, you have a good possibility that you will throw your slide out of time and strip the gear pack.

I have watched many of your videos. Many very informative. One issue it there is a Recall on the slide out floors being installed below the sidewalls and the water runs to the 1” flooring that is press wood. Horrible company. Taking shortcuts on my rv and both sides of slide out rotten and Keystone won’t admit poor building. This slide out has protected on bottom where mine doesn’t at the rotted area. Batman please rescue me.

The grinding noise at the end of the slide movement has me worried on my RV you say it is normal. Could you explain why is a noise like gears stripping is normal , Thanks

@KeystoneRVCenter

It shouldn't make a grinding noise, it should be a "clicking" or "ratcheting" sound. You do need to let go of the button as soon as you hear it, what you're hearing is the ram reaching the end of it's stroke and the gear "ratcheting" to prevent it from stripping out and continuing to attempt to push the slide room further than the stop allows. If it is in fact a grinding sound you should have it checked out.

@@KeystoneRVCenter I'm told some slide out systems have automatic shut off so we can hold the switch forever because it automatically shuts off when the slide is all the way out. To me this is a much more intelligent design and the purpose of advancement education science and technology which makes life easier, simpler, cheaper, safer, less stressful and more fun and peaceful for all humans.

With the slides that I am familiar with no. Grease attracts dirt and that can destroy the gear system

I have a keystone 2006 Montana model number 3500 RL and my slide won't go back in. I've only had this trailer for 2 days. Is there anything I could try? Things I have tried was at the pump there is a manual mode if you put a 1/4 hex screw in but that didn't take in the slides at all. I was trying to figure out how to get underneath the bed in the master but it is completely boxed in to take a look at a motor there. Now when I do touch the slide button for it to come in the motor is running on its own. That's the motor in the hall. I'm not sure about the actual individual slide motors. Now how it works in that 2006 the first slide that goes in is the bedroom slide then the living room slides and then the kitchen slide. It's a total of four slides altogether. Any help from anyone at this point would be nice.
