maintenance

I know about luring the rails on the underside of my slide but is there anything to do on the motors themselves?

What kind of lube and sealant protectant?

This may be a silly question. When you are adding water to your camper through the city water connection, does the hot water tank fill first? My husband read online that it is a good idea to clean your hot water tank with vinegar. It said to pump it into the tank using the city water...

Curious what people use to keep moisture in their roof. I've heard of people using the marine 303. Anyone have any good ideas on what's the best? Thanks! -David

Hello fellow campers! We just purchased our first camper with a slide! (Rockwood Signature Ultra Lite Model 2701ss). I am so excited! Looking for maintenance tips as we have never dealt with this before. What needs to be done to the slide mechanism, seals, etc? Thanks in advance for sharing...

I perused the current threads and did not find what I needed. Forgive me if I missed it - especially if there's a nifty one - just point me in the right direction. New owners of a Shamrock 183 hybrid trailer with 3 foldouts. Just got back from 10 days of dry camping in a forest next to Lake...

Arrived at our favorite campground yesterday but didn't open awning till today, and as expected the awning looks brand new! The secret is Wet & Forget. I cleaned the awning 2 years ago and sprayed with W & F then. Today it is still pristine. I highly recommend this product. Sent from my...

Anyone have any suggestions on how to apply chemicals/preservatives to the top of the slide seals under the slide topper? How do you reach to the inside? Rich

Hi there, Just purchased a 2013 year model of the Highwall 296. Its in decent shape and overall pleased with our purchase. While looking through the owners manual at the maintenance intervals, I see that the "lifter system" needs to be lubricated every 6 months. I am pretty sure the...

Hello, The Revolution was still able to be moved by hand but when loaded on the truck turning corners it was jerky. Did a teardown tonight on the hitch. Found Water under the friction plate, don't think there should be this much moisture in there. Found some dirt on the plate and wear marks...

Going to do my first recaulking of my 2014 Palomino and want to get it right so where do I use self-leveling and non-leveling lap sealant?

Another goofy question. I just don't want to break something. I was trying to pull the lanyards behind the front tires this morning. I couldn't get the best position on them but did pull them pretty hard. I was afraid to pull harder and have the lanyard come out in my hand. Are they really that...

I have bought a used 2008 Rockwood 1910 last year (in great shape, almost like new), the original owner lost the pop-up manual... Do I need to do any routing maintenance on the lift system? If so, what should I do, where to start? I really don't want surprises at the campground... Thanks.

Just wondering if anyone is doing their own slide seal maintenance. How do you get the rubber seal treatment under the slide awnings/covers? Rich

I'm new to owning a fiberglass roof is there anything I need to do annually, monthly or seasonal?

We have the frameless windows and it says they require yearly maintenance but we can't find anything about this in our manuals. What's a good cleaner to use on those seals? Since they don't open very far, how do you get up in there to really clean it good? (Remove the screens inside the trailer?)

Replaced my first slider bottom track. Went easier than growing grey hairs over thinking of it. reviews on you tube is troubling in that sever floor rot occurs. Received the (weakest things ever) tracks left and right (29.00 total) from the RV dealer via UPS. Removed the exterior trim piece...

For those that have a Dometic Refrigerator and do your own preventative maintenance, what maintenance do you perform weekly, monthly, or annually? I am having zero issues with the refrigerator and want to keep it this way. Thanks in advance for any input.

I have had my sunseeker 3170 for a year now and decided to check the batteries. What am I looking for exactly. I keep reading to make sure that the water level is 1/8 to 1/4 inch above the plates. I do see water covering the plates (I see silver under the water). The water is barely covering...

Anyone use scotch-guard on their tent bunks?

I posted the in the General area and no responses. Any help would be appreciated. As a newbie, I have read (I think) all the threads on the cleaning and waxing our RV's to help me with our new Forester. I appreciate all the experience you all bring to the forum but one question I have after...
