Ellen: Hey everyone, I'm Ellen here at etrailer.com. Today we're taking a quick look at the replacement Maxxair roof vent manual lift operator. This is going to fit several different models of the Maxxair roof vents including some deluxe and standard models. It does have the list of part numbers that this fits in the description on our product page here at etrailer.com, so definitely check that out.But basically, this is going to allow our handle in our enclosed trailer or an RV to turn that lifting mechanism to lift up our vent. That way we can let in some air, get some circulation going and keep everything nice and cool, let out the hot air, let in the good cold air and vice versa. If your vent or fan is cracked or damaged at all and you've got some water leakage, it's probably best to just replace the entire unit.
But if everything's working properly, and this is really the only issue is that it's just not lifting or closing anymore, this is going to be a much less expensive option as far as keeping everything working and instead of having to replace your entire unit, you can just replace this small mechanism to get everything working again.But if anything's damaged like your top cover's cracked, you're starting to get some leakage in there, you probably will want to just replace that whole vent unit because it's important to keep out any kind of water damage from your trailer. You don't want to get anything else inside your enclosed trailer dirty or anything like that or damaged. We have a lot of options available here at etrailer.com, if you want to pick one up. But that aside, if everything else is working just fine, this is definitely going to be an easy way to replace that and get you back out on the road, enjoying the cool air.It is an aluminum construction. It comes with that mounting hardware.
We'll have the two bolts and nuts that capture inside there to mount this in place. And then it'll also have the two holes to attach it into our system. The distance between those two at the bottom is about two and five-eights of an inch, center-on-center. The length of each of those hexagonal sides is about a quarter of an inch for each of those hexes. And then the length coming off here is about one and three-eights of an inch.
The instructions do have a list again, of what this is going to fit and then instructions for the various different models and how to get those taken out and replaced, so it makes it a little easier to do your install without having to do any guesswork.But that's going to do it for our look at the replacement Maxxair roof vent manual lift operator.

Replaces the manual lift operator for your MaxxAir roof vents with manual lid operation.etrailer was super easy to access and order the replacement part for my broken (again) Maxxfan. They shipped the part immediately and delivery was quicker than expected, so quick I was able to make the repair before up coming camping trip! This is my first time using etrailer, they were great, I highly recommend. This is my 3rd time replacing this part, I am very dissatisfied with Maxxfan!
Works OK but does not lift up as far as the old one did. I have double checked the installation but it really only installs one way. No installation info with the unit.
very quick response to fulfilling my order. The part looks better built that the original. Haven't installed it yet ,looks like a perfect fit.
Mechanism worked fine, installation was difficult as previous mechanism was flush mount to bracket. This replacement lift operator had screw heads that protruded. I was able to modify the mounting bracket to accept the screw heads and enable flush mount.
4 stars due to modifications required.
They have got great products great people and my order actually came in early
It works correctly as described, easy installation and fast delivery. Would highly recommend.
I say part is average due to the construction. However the material must be weak due to the fact they brake often and then part sells out everywhere and becomes hard to find. I believe MaxxAir should take some responsibility for part quality.
Product would not fit my fan unit. It was mfg about 12 years ago, and instead of having an 8 sided drive it uses a 4 sided shaft, which will not fit the lift module sent.
I got the part number from the MFG data sheet, so that matches. You shipped the correct part to match the part pictured. Part was shipped on time, and arrived 3 days early. Packaging was good, and part arrived in good condition even though it went US mail.
Instructions for how to replace the part were included. I followed them inside the trailer after removing the whole assembly by the using the mounting screws, and disconnecting the power wire. Good Photo instructions!
The only bad part is it does not fit. (Not your fault) I will try the OEM and see if they have a fix. Great effort and follow up on your part.
Otto - 07/24/2019Item was on back order hit came when stated. Staff was excellent at answering my questions and the part fit perfectly with my MaxxFan.
This part was the fix for the problem. The original one was obsolete but, this part would still do the job.

Works like a charm! Very fast shipping. I ordered the part late afternoon on Friday and received the part on Monday afternoon. Nice!
This replacement part fits exactly and us superior in design to the original as this one has two bolts holding the two molded halves together. Second RV, second replacement and us a great replacement.
Under normal use this product should last the lifetime of the trailer.
Very fast service. Thanks!
This replacement part for my fan perfec tly.
D W - 09/22/2021EXCELLENT !!!! [Nationwide camping store] did not have parts for Maxxair fan, but etrailer does !!!! etrailer has very nice package tracking feature. etrailer also has Q&A that was very helpful to get the correct parts. Very Pleased!!
This was a direct replacement for the lift mechanism on my MaxxAir 5100 fan. The part fit perfectly, and it came with easy-to-follow directions from etrailer. Overall, the purchasing experience, as well as the quality of the part, has been fantastic. It was my first transaction, and I really appreciated the detailed and thorough descriptions for each part and the fact that etrailer seems to be very adamant about customers' opinions and ways to improve. Thanks!
Works as designed and advertised.
Excellent sales support. Informed me of the status of my order. The part is exactly what I ordered and needed. We can now open our roof vent thanks to the etrailer TEAM. etrailer came through once again. Thank you all!
we suffered down draft from a tornado which damaged our Maxair vent. I ordered the parts and with instructions made repairs.
etrailer people were very helpfull .
Product was delayed due to Covid stuff, sales associate kept me informed at all times
Excellent price and speedy delivery. Called to clarify which parts I needed and staff was very knowledgeable and courteous. Thanks for saving me $.
Did the trick. Make sure your mechanism has 6 sides if you order this. The instructions were very easy to use. Basically you remove two screws on the roof portion exhaust, pop the lid and replace. I took the screen and fan blade off to clean and it made it easier to access.
I like things that can be fixed for $20.
Works great, easy to install, shipped way faster than expected!
It was great that you kept me up to date with my order.
