Manual retract slides

After reading my manual I'm alittle confused on what I need to loosen to relieve the fluid pressure so I can manually retract my living room slide. In the picture I've included do I loosen the rust colored nuts to relieve the pressure.

Keep in mind... we always need the year, model and floorplan ID of any RV you are asking about so that we can help you by looking up various diagrams and parts lists for your RV.

You'll notice the majority of us put this info in our Signature so that we don't have to keep manually adding that info to every post.

See mine below

That appears to be a HWH hydraulic leveling system. Those 4 solenoids with the Tee handles are for the jacks, there should be a single solenoid controlling the slide mechanism on the other side of that manifold, just above the motor. It too will have a T33 handle just like your picture.
This troubleshooting manual explains everything in detail: https://hwhcorp.com/ml23521.pdf


This will aid you in accurately identifying your HWH model: http://www.serenitysys.com/beaver/ar...ID_ml40256.pdf

This is what the owners manual says to loosen. 2nd picture is what's on the other side of the jacks solenoids.

OK, my bad; the first thing to do is correctly identify your HWH leveling system model, that link will help you accomplish the identification.
There are several things to look at, the tough panel configuration, control box configuration, and the plug on the back of the tough panel.
Each side/end of the MH leveling system is controlled by A solenoid = 4 solenoids, The slide hyd. system is controlled by A solenoid = 1 solenoid.


This is the HWH service manual for Winnebago slide mechanisms.

Ok so my buddy and I found the release valves on the slide solenoids and turn them to release the pressure. We cranked the winch in slowly as far as we could. We even placed floor jacks under the slide to help raise it up incase the side was catching on the chassis. We still can't get it to come in. We can shake the slide it seems free, but something is keeping it from coming in.
