maintenance

Hello, Just purchased a 2017 Roo 233s seemingly pretty lightly used by previous owner. It was still winterized when we purchased it, so I have dewinterized it and sanitized the fresh water system. I checked the tire pressures. Took it for a short weekend trip recently about 60 miles round trip...

HI, I am looking for a general maintenance and operation book/manual. The books with my Rainier are vague. It is also hit and miss to get info from the manufacturers. For example, I have had trailers before but didn't know to replace the tires every 5 years or so. Rather than getting info a...

Have a 2021 Berkshire 34B. The house batteries say maintenance free. They are Centennial USBB-6 CCA 220-AH deep cycle. Looks low on water. ? Distilled water or leave alone. Can see plates. Called Centennial. No response.

Maybe not technically a newbie, but since I have only been doing this for a little over a year, I guess it still qualifies. Battery maintenance on my 26DBH. My camper will likely spend the remainder of 2021 inside my metal building(hopefully not, but mine and my kids' schedules are hectic in...

I searched for a thread here about axle greasing, but couldn't find one. What's the concensus about pumping grease into the zirc fitting on the Lippert axle -vs- removing the wheel and hand greasing the bearings? Based on a little research, it seems like many people think it is too easy to...

I want to maximize my battery life for one or two day boondocking (also have a small portable generator in tow) on a recently acquired A128S. Hopefully someone can give me a brief primer or For starters, it came with an Interstate "Deep Cycle" group 24 marine/RV battery. It was fine, got us...

What is recommended at 60K miles?

Does anyone have a good video or overview of what i call PMCS for checking all fluid levels etc for the 34B or any of the berkshire diesels? Daily or before trips? I just want to see what others are doing and seeing is always better than reading. Thanks so much.

Brand new to Forum. Purchased gently used 2015 Reflection 303RLS this year. Unfortunately the dealer we bought from sold to Campers World 3 mo after purchase and I don't want to take it there for service. The rig it is going to need roof work which I expect will be costly. Does anyone have...

I have purchased a service contract that requires I do regular maintenance on the TT in order for the service contract to remain valid. I can't seem to find any maintenance manual from the paperwork given to me for the Surveyor Legend 19BHLE. Any suggestions on how to find this elusive manual?

I have a 2014 400BH with 360 HP engine which is due for 60K maintenance. For my 9k, 15K and 30K services I was charged about 2 - 2.5 hours of labor and, including all consumables and parts, they ran me under $400. My $45K service included transmission fluid change, so it was a bit more...

I’m bringing my 2015 Forester to the dealer next week to get a couple of the broken slide seals replaced. Unfortunately I did not know about treating them routinely and they tore. The dealer recommended at the same time that they “service” my two slides which I imagine includes lubrication and...

I have a 2011 Forest River Sunseeker. 31 foot Class C. I am trying to locate a maintenance manual. Does anyone know where I can get a copy or download one?

Recently got a WEN 3800 (56380i) - the manual lists similar ongoing maintenance to the one below, run it an hour a month, drain the carb float every time, etc., etc... I can see draining the carb for extended periods of non-use (winter months), and of course changing oil at the recommended...

This past weekend my family enjoyed our second camping trip with our new pop up! It was awesome! We brought our bikes this time and the kids loved riding around the campground. They also loved swimming, playing the campground games and playing games in the camper. Ok time for some questions...

Reading up on treating my slide seals. Seen video suggesting treating seals with baby powder? Also the various spray products. Some say use nothing greasy. Some use Amorall. Bit confusing to me and sure Ill get many opinions here but gonna ask. ???

I purchased a 2013 Flag Staff Classic Lite. And the Propane quick connects seem to be a little sticky. I was wondering is there something I can clean or lube them to make the operate smoother?

2020 roo 233s. One slide. Due to Covid it has mostly sat in my driveway with minimal use What is the regular maintenance necessary for the slides and gears etc. please point me in the right direction Thank you!

Hi All Escapees: We just purchases a new 17B (2020), with a solar panel. I’d like to start this thread on panel maintenance. Thanks Larry&Liz for your solar panel battery question.... and I (flower) would like to continue this thread with another! What is the best way to clean solar panels...

I cannot find slide out maintenance in the materials we received when we bought the NoBo nor in the online owners manual. I assume we have to grease or oil the tracks. Anyone know?

We have a 2016 Rockwood Forest River Signature Ultra-Lite 5th wheel. We've owned it for 2 1/2 years. We use it 4 times a year for a total of 24 to 30 days of it being exposed to the elements per year. This unit never sets outside other than when in use. When not in use it resides in a fully...

Hi gang I’m looking for some advice. I have located Zerk fitting on the bottom of my Rockwood 1640 LTD. How many pumps of Greece should I be putting in the every six months? And does anybody know what was originally put in by the manufacturer so I do not mix grease types? Also I guess the cable...

Our 320RS roof started "black" spotting 2 years after purchase. An apparent breakdown with the epdm white coating. Anyway, as a refresher what are the current best products for cleaning and sealing as I want to continue with this roof as long as possible even how ugly the spotting is.

I have a 2014 Forest River Solera with two slides. I am new to managing my RV and learning as much as I can. I had the left front slide controller and front motor replaced last October. The invoice says they installed brackets front and rear ( I am assuming this on on both slides the front and...

I am looking ahead to get a travel trailer in the next year and just want to be prepared for everything. I understand to expect little things to go wrong and to have to fix things myself which I am confident I can do since I fix everything around the house but my biggest concern is leaks. It...
