TT Slide - Using while inside the trailer
Hey folks.. Getting new trailer this week replacing a little guy we had a few years ago. The new trailer has a slide which I have not had before. I was watching a video on slide maintenance ear...

Yes, it's true.
The floor of the slide wil be cantilevered when not fully extended. Stepping on the front edge puts a lot of strain on the flooring.
According to Northwood manufacturing, if it has rollers underneath then you risk pulling the floor away from the wall. Dont know that this is really true though because it seems to have a lot of support.
If it has a white plastic strip across the front that it slides on, you risk breaking it.
That's exactly what I did on our last TT. I repeatedly stepped on the edge and broke the guide strip. It was a lot of work to fix!
