Before installation, ensure you have measured your RV's entry door frame and the height from the ground to the threshold to select the correct step size. The 30-inch Double Step model (733932) is designed for entry widths between 29 and 36 inches and a required floor height of 22 to 28 inches.

Operating Instructions
The Lippert Solid Step is designed for easy deployment and stowage:
- Deploying the Steps: To deploy, unlatch the steps from their stowed position inside the doorway. Gently lower the steps until they are fully extended and the feet are firmly on the ground. Adjust the individual leg extensions as needed to ensure the steps are level and stable on uneven terrain.
- Stowing the Steps: To stow, lift the steps from the ground. Fold them upwards into the RV's entry doorway. Ensure they are securely latched into place to prevent movement during travel.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and safe operation of your Solid Step:
- Cleaning: Clean the steps regularly with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
- Lubrication: Periodically lubricate the pivot points and hinges with a silicone-based lubricant to ensure smooth operation.
- Inspection: Before each use, inspect the steps for any loose fasteners, bent components, or signs of corrosion. Ensure the adjustable legs lock securely.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, ensure the steps are clean, dry, and properly stowed inside the RV.
Troubleshooting
Here are some common issues and their potential solutions:
- Steps are difficult to deploy or stow: Check for any obstructions in the mechanism. Apply a silicone-based lubricant to all pivot points and hinges. Ensure the steps are not binding against the RV frame.
- Steps feel wobbly or unstable: Ensure the adjustable legs are properly extended and firmly planted on a level surface. Check all mounting hardware for tightness. Verify that the steps are correctly installed according to the manual.
- Unusual noises during operation: Inspect for loose components or debris in the mechanism. Lubricate all moving parts. If noises persist, contact customer support.
