Manual Slide Operation - 8285WS

I searched for a bit on how to manually operated the large slide and could find nothing. So I finally found out the place where the manual shaft is located.

It is on the side opposite the slide, between the the two tires and high up in the wheel well. It is a shaft with a thru-pin - It uses the same crank as the one for manual operation of the landing gear. However on mine the outer fender trim will not allow you to install the crank - I cut a 1" hole in plastic outer fender to allow a straight shot at the shaft.
