 Topic: Slide-out infoPosted: 13 Jan 2022 at 6:12pm |

I'm wondering if there's a manual override on the slide on my 2014 178 HRE. Wanting to be prepared for anything, I like to know BEFORE I have a problem. Can't find anywhere to hand-crank it if I need to. I tried doing some research on maintenance etc. and most of the info refers to a Schwintek slide. Mine says "Venture" on the motor. Same company? Any info or suggestions are welcome!

We have a 2012 177 pod.. Almost the same lay out. To manually move your slide take the cover off underneath the kitchen area just to the left of the fridge. There you will see head of a screw, I believe it is the same size as the stabilizer jack screw heads. It is in a tight area, so I bought a wrench that will work in that small area. We bought our trailer new in 2012, so far... fingers crossed we've never had to do anything manually with our slide.... Good luck with yours also.

Thanks, Ron. I'll get the right size socket so I have room to maneuver. I've had a 5th wheel and a truck camper with slides and never had a problem with them either. I'm assuming our (yours and my) luck will hold. I'm having so much fun with this little Pod!
