Slider hitch, locking question
I am a new 5th wheel owner. I have a slider hitch. The slide lock has 3 positions. Lock: Maneuvering Free Lock: Towing What is the difference in the two lock positions?

Sorry, I wasn't clear enough on my question.
If the slide is physically in the TOW position, and someone moved the lever to the LOCKED MANEUVER position. Or visa versa. Would the slide still stay locked or would it possibly move to the position indicated on the lever?
I have only pulled this from the dealer to home. Getting ready to take a long trip.
The guy at the dealer who did my walk through didn't know, but he told me that he's had people come out of a store and someone had pulled the pin on their hitch or messed with other things.
I never had any issues like that with my TT, but I also kept it locked. Which I will also do with this hitch. There is a place to lock the pin lock, but not the slide lever.
