Not sure what brand slide-out mechanism your trailer had, but below are a couple of links to slide room adjustment.

They are suppose to raise up about an inch- the slide out room rides on runners that drop down a ramp at the end of their travel, to allow the floor transition to be as flat as possible. The room is either pushed or dragged across the existing floor surface, and can be adjusted side to side, or tilt in or out; but NOT up! Hope this helps! Randy

Here's the whole story with pics as to how I adjusted mine. The fun part was banging it with a big hammer!!

As stated the slide out floor will float above the main floor about an inch when retracted. Try to avoid as much as possible (read: DO NOT) walking on the slide floor when retracted.
