New member and I have a slide problem
Hello all and Happy Holidays
New member here from New Mexico. I bought a used 2007 Keystone Montana. It is very nice. I am boondocking on my property as I am building a little home. I noticed lately that the main slide has started to lean or tilt inward at the top only, the bottom remains flush to the wall. I have nothing under the slides like extra supports etc. The rv was leveled and has a cement block and wood under the front, and the stabilizers down in the back. How do I correct this leaning slide? Is there some adjustments I must make to the slide itself or is this a leveling thing now that the rv is settling? I can find no information about this, and youtube had little information too. I feel quite stuck and helpless. 😞

First off welcome to the MOC. Secondly we need a bit more information. Maybe a picture. You say top leaning inward and this has occurred since its been open?

The first thing I would do is Extend the slide. It sounds like the hydraulic ram has lost a little pressure. Running the hydraulic pump will boost it back up and should seal the slide up tight again. If it reoccurs then it is time to start diagnosing the hydraulic system.

…also if you could share what model your 2007 is you will get more targeted answers.

Congratulations and welcome.
Maybe cycle the slide completely in then back out?
