Slide sticking

Does anyone know how to adjust the slide stops? We have a 8524 rls Flagstaff 5th wheel.
Our slide wants to click or ratchet at least 20 times before it will start to go out when it sits overnight closed. After it finally goes out it works fine until the next time you want to open it. I have been closing it and then going back out for just a second and it will not stick. Slide lube does not seem to help at all.
Any suggestions?

thanks ,
travis

Try checking the Water in your Battery. Mine was doing the same thing & I found the Batt. water was low and there was not the amps to run the motor at full power. Just a thought
