I do not have an issue but I was wondering how the hydraulic slide operates. I am used to my old electric slide and it was on a dinette and only went out or in. my slides on my 331rlt seem to articulate and lift first then slide in. first the kitchen on the opposite door side then the dinning on the door side. my bedroom slide is standard and only goes out or in but (1) Why do they have one switch operating both slides and

To save money. The 2 hydraulic rams react off each other. You only need one set of hoses to the rear. Only one solenoid to control it. Only one switch. I am sure their research shows most folks put both slides out together. There is a manual set of valves that you can isolate the slides if you only want to extend or retract one slide. (On my '14 3150RL the manual valves are in the door that houses the level up system.)


(2) is there any schematic or video to show how the operation actually works because the skirting under the unit covers all of the workings. like I said I do not have any issues with the slides but it doesn't mean that I will not have one in the future.

When the slides are out, raise the carpet flap on the inner edge of the slide and have some one hit the switch to retract the slide. You can see it climb out of the drop down in the floor so it can come in. Just bump the switch, so you do not get your hand caught/damaged/broke/bloody.....
