Screen removal,,,

Update:Ok there black plastic level on the bottom corners of the screens that I can turn to unlock, but none of the top corners have a lever, just a plastic nubbin that the lever would hook to? I tired a needle nose to try and turn but no luck. WTH?

For the life of me I can’t figure out hot to take my screens out on our 31W. Manual is no help. I noticed that there are what appear to be red locking clips in the corner? Some corners don’t have the red clips. What am I missing?


Thanks,
JJ and PJ.

Rotate the bottom clips and pull bottom of screen out. Then slide it down. The top clips will clear. You don’t have to rotate them. On our MH the only screens that have red clips are the screens on the emergency exit window. Hope this helps.

Yes on the red clips, emergency exit.

I thought it might be like you describe, but not knowing, didn’t want to bugger it up.

Will give it a try.

Thanks
JJ

The top clips pop out rather easily. And the bottom clips are easy to break. You can get replacements from Thor.

pstandiford - that was it!

The first screen I took out I popped one of the fixed clips off. (I found it underneath jack knife and popped it back in) The other screens came out with no issue when I tilted screen to the side. Windows and screens clean.

Thanks!
JJ
