Troubleshooting Slide Topper That is Too Tight on RV Slide Out
Updated 10/19/2020 | Published 10/16/2020 >
Question:
I installed this topper and looks great, but when I ran the slide out the tension prevents the top portion of the slide from sealing. How can I adjust the tension so I still get a full seal?

How many times did you wind the roller of the slide topper # LCV000168106 when you installed it? Solera recommends 12 to 16 turns so you might try backing down to 12 if you had higher than that so that your slide will seal properly.
