    Water Heater & Manual Slide Help

    Familiarizing myself as to where things are located and cannot find access to the manual slide control, found the handle but not where it is used and cannot find access to the electrical heater element.

    Any help appreciated.

    No manual crank on mine that I could find. Not on the hydraulic slides or the bedroom Schwintech slide. The crank I got was for lower the spare tire and the access hole is behind my PS slide.

    Access to the electrical heater element.... not sure.... maybe behind an oval panel someplace?

    There should be a hole in the J wrap - the lower valance panel - on the slide. The hole allows access to the shaft that fits the hand crank. Control is crank one way or the other.

    The 310 is a Solitude with hydraulically operated slides. No hand cranking there.
    Can't help with the water heater. Google your model number and look for a parts diagram.

    T-dawg - no crank for your hydraulic slides. I've heard there's a way to drive the pump with a drill motor.

    Check post #16 in this thread for a link to a video showing manual operation of your Schwintek.
