How to adjust a single motor living room glide Canyon star

Does anyone know how to adjust the angle for the glide once retracted, on a 3710? This is for the living room glide with a single motor.

I will assume your talking about the LR slide, not a FWS, and its crooked in its opening when closed.
This sticky has info all about slides and how to adjust any type, this will be the link your looking for.
Workhorse fusing and wiring plus maintenance info.
You will need to release the torque bushings and with help push the slide in flush to slide opening compressing the seals, with maybe help of bar locks if you have them.

Tilt adjustment is my issue. The info I saw was for being crooked not fixing the tilting of the glide.

A picture of the condition you are trying to correct would be very helpful.

Tilting out at the top

Did it start at the bottom and sticking out at the top and wondering how you can go out and adjust it so that the top is vertical. Another words adjusting the tilt of the Glide.

Slide tilted, slide spec, trouble shoot section of spec item #11 adjust saddle.
Slide information can be found in this thread and the new Slides the good , bad & ugly.

Your going to have to crawl into the lower compartment and I would check both rails with the holes and saddles, two, and see if one is loose in its mount before you even try to adjust a saddle.
Saddle adjustment threads search.
This is what may have to be done.

caschoen you gotta check your content before posting, auto correct is confusing us.
So I think you're saying that the bottom of the "slide" is flush but the top is out maybe an inch. Is this both front and rear on the "slide"? Being a 2018, you have the newer slides - not sure of the Canyon Star as to whether they have the HWH or the older slope slide. I would check out the links 007's provided and hope you can figure it out.
Also when you take a pic with your phone, hold the phone horizontally with the camera to the left, then when you attach the pic it will be oriented correctly on the forum.

Thank you for your comments and advice. It is only the rear part on the driver side that is out at the top.

Here is a Newmar slide worksheet, if you could fill it in perhaps your issue would be more clear.

Your word Glide is our word Slide is that correct?
The instructions given will correct a "living room slide", short slide, if its a "full wall slide" you have software controls to adjust all sides of slide to position in its wall opening using this information.
