Trailer should have come with a crank.
There is usually a spot by the entry stairs where the crank goes in.
It's a hole about the size of 50-cent piece.
They like to hide them!

Look around and you will find it.

Hmmm......
Nothing on the exterior huh?
My BIL's trailer has a bedroom slide that has a port on the exterior for extending the slide in case of a failure.
You found nothing like that huh?
Well....I'm stumped.
Maybe one of the kind folks here will chime in with the answer.

Sorry.

Underneath the slide, on the outside, you'll find a compartment. On the top/ceiling of that compartment you'll see a shroud/cover held on by four screws. Drop the shroud to find the slide motor and manual slide nut.

I have a 2010 Dreamer/Freelander/Coachman and that's how my slide operates manually. Good luck.
