RV SLIDE OUT RAIL ALIGNMENT & LUBING
While retracting my slide today I noticed a gap in the rear bottom of the slide. It must have got out of alignment somehow. The Manuel is very helpful in instruction to how to realign the slide vertically:
Power Gear Slide-Out Inner Rail Alignment
1.Remove cotter pin from idler drive shaft.
2.Push the idler drive shaft toward opposite rail to disengage the gear from the gear rack.
3.Adjust the gear timing by sliding the idler rail side of the room to the proper position (Measure to ensure the same distance from
the frame as the drive rail side).*
4.Push the idler drive shaft back into position, engaging the gear onto the gear rack.
5.Reinstall cotter pin into idler drive shaft.
Extend and retract the slide a few times and check for proper room rubber flange sealing. If the room is not properly aligned, repeat steps 1 thru 6.
Depending on the size of your slide, you may need help moving the room by hand. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
