if this is a power gear rack and pinion slide then I can either do my best to type you through it or tell you the following

Power Gear
Click on Technical documents
push the proper buttons (I pushed "ALL" on the slides section)

Choose "Adjusting slides pdf" from the list, it's near the bottom

You are welcome.... By the way... I keep reading, both in the owner's manual and on line, about a 3/4" nut I'm supposed to apply a wrench to in order to manually move the slides in or out.

Turns out that out of ALL Power Grear's documents... The one you want is the ONLY one that shows the missing (on my slides) 3/4' nut!!!

Which is why I know where it is. (The document that is)
