There should be two bolts and slide plates under the slide out you'll have to loosen the slide plates bolts and then UN jamb the adjusting bolts then adjust to your liking.

As I don't have your make or model the adjusting portion normally remains the same.
I'd take a pic and show you but I'm at work (cough cough kinda)
Maybe dunnnc can take a pic of his adjusters so at least you know what your looking for .
