Thabks! We have had a hydraulic hose become weakened by chaffing against the pass thru hole in the bulkhead and then burst. Bob called DeWald and they made up a new hose and sent it right over. Problem solved. He, of course, has put a chafe guard on the hose to prevent a recurrence.

Thanks searchers.

I went to the site and downloaded two pdf files on the system including part numbers. Tried to find this before and could not.

I had to adjust the slide because the hyd actuator come to rest on the guide wires when the slide dropped into place. I removed the covers and could see the the hyd act was under stress and was not straight when extended. In other word it was a precursor to failure.

I adjusted the slide so that the act would just miss the guide wires by about 1/16 of an inch when the slide was extended. That was several years ago. Notified Keystone and dealer.

Never any other problems with it.
