Slide out Noise... problems or not?
In my trailer, the kitchen slide out is starting to make very a very loud scraping noise during the first 7 inches of outward movement. The slide is electric motor powered, Lippert Brand, and only extends out about 18". When bringing the slide out back into the trailer, it operates as normal in that it starts in, travels for a period of movement, then tilts slightly up for the last 8" or so of inward movement.. BUT when extending it out, the minute you depress the out button, the slide drops down and starts it outward movement. It is during this first 7 inches or outward movement that a very, very loud wood scraping noise is heard then it goes away as it continues out. I was able to determine that the front bottom of the slide out stove frame/paneling is what is scraping the vinyl floor for this first 7 inches or so. It makes plenty of noise but has yet to mark the floor. This has just started happening so something has changed but what? Is there an adjustment for this or something I should look into? I have included several photos to describe what I am talking about.
