I am not familiar with your unit but can relate my own experience with slide-outs on my National MH equipped with electric slides.
The main slide has exposed rails with a mechanism that can be operated with a ratchet wrench in an emergency but I have never had to do that. I am told that it is a lomg and tedious process. The rails require periodic lubrication. RV supply stores sell a spray lubricant for that.
The bedroom slide has concealed rails that I can see no way to lube. It failed twice when a shear pin in the drive broke. With help I was able to manually push it back in but with no gear there was nothing except its own weight and friction to keep it from sliding back out. I was able to drive it home, carefully and with and eye on the mirror to be sure it did not come out. I now carry spare shear pins.
