Stripped attachment mechanism on Dinette pole (3010DS)

[shirleyj62]

We have a 2017 3010ds which we purchased last year.

We recently spent 2 weeks camping with granddaughter. Since we had the "theatre seating" added, we were changing the dinette into a bed every night and back to table every morning. About midway through our trip, we discovered the table attachment to the pole has been stripped and no longer tightens down.

Has anyone else have this happen and what did you do to fix this.

Thanks
Shirley and David

Shirley, I dont believe I have ever heard about that problem. Mine is in storage so I can't look to see what type of clamp/bolt arrangement it has. If you can completely unscrew the knob and if it is stripped, take it to a dealer if you have one nearby. If not, a good hardware store and see if they can match it to get you by until you can get it replaced. If it is the threaded part of the clamp that the bolt screws into that is stripped, it can probably be fixed with a heli-coil. Can you snap a picture?

OP, if still around, the bolt screws into the cast (aluminum?) table plate. If stripped, it can be helicoiled.
