Recently one of the the knobs that control the individual movements of the slides on my 2015 silverback 29re came off in my hand. Has anyone successfully re-attached one of these knobs? Or upgraded to a more substantial method.
Use the system frequently when cleaning/loading etc.

Yes I have. The knob has a small set screw that secures this to the shaft that controls the slide. I have tightened all of the knob set screws on my trailer. Examine the knob closely and you will see the set screw.

Thanks Jim for this info. I did not know this as I’m sure many don’t. I will check the set screws on mine also. Allen screw or screwdriver?

It was a couple of years ago that I had to tighten the knobs so, I really don't remember which style I used. Plus my trailer is in storage right now and I can't remove one to tell you.
God Luck.

Any idea for a replacement knob... have one that disappeared?
I found one here at Grainger supply, not sure if this is the correct one.
Do a search on there website for "Pointed Control Knob".
They have a bunch of different ones.
