2008 Melbourne 29D slide out manual ovedrride

[BobsMelbourne]

I have a 2008 Melbourne 29d and for the life of me - I can't find out where the access is to all three slides - especially the dinette slide. I am scared when these things dont work, I will have to manually override them, and the Jayco Manual is sketchy at best with no locations to look for. Does anyone have any where the access is, and how to manually retract or extend the slides in this model. Any help would be awesome! Thank You.

2008 probably has POWER GEAR slides which has been bought out by LIPPERT. There should be brake handle on the motor that needs to be moved and then you use a ratchet to move the slide. Is there as storage compartment under the slide outside. The motor is probably mounted in there on the bottom of the floor. Otherwise there may be a false bottom under one of the benches.

The next time I go to the motorhome in the next week or two I'm going to look under those dinette benches. It's carpeted I'm going to fiddle around and see if it's under there somehow there's no way I can get to anything under the motorhome. It doesn't appear to be there on the dinette slide. I believe the access for the sofa slide could be under the sofa which is almost impossible to lift because it's an electric sofa. I will look at that and then I will look under the bed in the back for the bed slide I believe it's under the bed. Thanks for the help I'm going to try and I'll get back to you on this when I look at it. This group is awesome
