Is the glide ram driven, cable or hydraulic. most new slides are ram diven using a big screw jack, you can go underneath the trailer or under the bed in some cases and you can manually crank the slide in with a wrench or ratchet. Cable driven work the same as a ram type. Hydraulic ones sometimes have a manual pump to retract the glide. Do NOT disconnect any of the attachments to the slide or out/in mechanism unless you know how to reset it.
