Lippert Slide-Out Motor with Electric Brake

Updated 05/07/2018 | Published 05/04/2018

Question:

I was wondering if the electric break on the end of the motor keeps the slide from coming in or out a 1/2 inch or so after the room is fully extended or retracted? also does the break on the end act as a clutch as well?

The Lippert Components RV Slide-Out Motor by Klauber # LC130057 does have the electric brake on it that does act like a clutch to keep you from over-extending or over-retracting the slide and causing any damage to the motor or frame. I'm not sure what you mean about the 1/2 inch, as the motor will draw the slide out in tight and will also fully extend the slide out so you have full intended movement. I contacted the manufacturer to confirm this.
