Look on page 2. Slide uneven. It will tell you in detail how to bring it back even.

Floyd2u,
I apologize that we have not provided solutions for you!
If I could find the “page 2” referenced by Smosher, I would provide it to you.
My suggestion is to call Newmar. No other source comes to my mind.
Best wishes!

Well, first of all, don't panic, it's not a big job. It probably slipped at the torque bushing(s). You will need tools to slack the bushings, align the slide flush and toque them tight.

Sorry I wasn’t clear on where to find it. When you open this you are on page 1 go to the bottom of the page and you will see all the other pages. Just go to the page 2 and you will find it

I have adjusted mine. I use a large pipe wrench and a 1 1/2 in big wrench. Normally the bushings just slip, trantorque , to loosen it I loosen the nut till it stops it is a right hand thread. I put a little pressure not enough to break it. I then take a hammer and hit the barrel top bottom a bottom and back and front if it doesn’t break loose apply a little more back pressure but be careful and hit it again. It is a tapered sleeve that tightens down on the shaft. When you get it loose I would hit the switch just momentarily to take the slack out of the chains that turn the cogs. Move the slide by hand at this point you can use a pipe wrench to adjust the front and back of the slide. Then tighten the trans torque. There are torque values but there are two different sizes of shaft. Work it slow and be carful
To use a torque wrench you will need a crows foot that fits.

There’s another thread, “ own a Newmar with electric slideouts, read this” that will give you more information. It got me going.
