2018 grey wolf manual slide

We bought a 2018 grey wolf 26dbh this year and we are first timers with a travel trailer. In the event we lose power how can I manually move the slide out in or out? I didn’t see it anywhere in the manual and could probably talk to the dealer, but this forum is always so helpful. Thanks in advance for any help!!!

If it us the swintec still, has the ladder looking tracks along the side. There is a black box, brain, that has a button on it. There is a sequence that is done on the switch. This releases the slide but that would need some power I would surmise. Without power you would need to disconnect the motors.

But if you are that dead I would be using the tow vehicle battery to avoid all this

It hasn’t happened but I have a friend that has a keystone cougar that has a manual option in the event of no power or malfunction. Just trying to stay ahead of any potential issues.

Good idea. The box has the override stamped on it but if it is like ours it is under the slide and barely reachable so I don't think it would be a bad idea to get the procedure written down.
