Are my slides all the way in

[Odera]

I have a 317rlok and I am wondering if my slides are retracting all the way in. I hold the retract a few seconds after they stops moving I have all three types of slides a Schwintek, cable and a gear system if that is what it is called. I think my Schwintek is not going all the way in. It stops about an inch from the wall maybe a little farther. Trying to find pictures or something or take a trip to a dealership to see what they look like drawn in. But wondering about all three types Any help would be appreciated Thanks

If you look outside, is the slide tight against the side of the wall?

No I can slide my finger in between them

Is that both sides? When it’s extended look on all 4 sides, especially the top, to make sure nothing is in the way like a tree branch.

Thanks I will it will be over a week before I can look at it. We just bought it second hand 2023 and before I left for overseas I noticed all three seemed far away. I will send you what I find when I get home. But I take it none of my slides should let a finger slide in when closed

There is a “D” shaped weather stripping that gets squashed when the room comes in to seal it so there will be some space between the exterior slide wall and the camper wall, but if you slide your finger in, you should immediately feel that rubber gasket. They definitely do not come totally flush against each other.

I can’t get a finger in mine.

Klassic thanks for the picture sometimes a picture speaks louder than words. Now I know mine need some work. Can I ask is that a picture of the schwintec or cable or gear type slide I have all three on my 317rlok. Thanks in advance.

That’s a Schwintek. Both my Schwintek’s are like that.
