when to put slide outs out

[spanky69]

just curios as to what the correct process is do you level your trailer then slide them out or slide them out then level it thanks

Level entire unit/then slides. If the unit is not level you might put a strain on the slides.

I put the slide out last. My kitchen is not in the slide. My stove top is the most important point in my leveling. I want my eggs to stay in the center of the pan.

If your manual doesn't have specic directions it doesn't much matter. Otherwise follow what your manual says.

The Glendale owner's handbook (generic, but covering all Titanium models) specifically says to level first AND set the rear stabilizers firmly before extending the slides.

I know, dealers do not do this on the lot, but dealers are not living in the trailer week after week.

I don't think it matters a whole lot, but sometimes my big slide can throw the level off a bit.

Of course if you're TOO much off level then yes, level first, before the curios fall off the shelf.

owner's manual should say. I have heard of both methods being recommended.
