Re-Timing Procedure
The top and bottom gear racks on each side of the In-Wall® Slide-Out System are connected by a torque
shaft that runs from the upper bearing block to the lower bearing block. The bearing blocks and torque
shaft are mounted inside of the column. The column is fastened to the side wall opening of the unit. The
timing of the system from top to bottom is considered to be adjustment free, as it is essentially locked in
correct time. In the instance that the system is no longer in time, either the top or the bottom will extend
farther than its opposite. The following procedure will help to properly address the concern:
NOTE: If the assembly is still on the slide room, refer to the Assembly Removal Procedure on Page 4. If the
assembly is already off the slide room for repair, start at step 1 below.
NOTE: If the system is no longer in time, inspection of all items will need to be performed prior to
proceeding with the re-timing procedure.
NOTE: The re-timing process is made easier by taking the system to a work bench.
1. Pull one of the gear racks to remove it from the bearing block.
NOTE: Both gear racks will move. Be sure when removing the gear racks that they do not fall to the floor or
sustain any damage.
2. Finish pulling the second gear rack free if necessary.
3. When feeding the gear racks back in, start from the notched side. Gently start the gear racks into the
bearing blocks evenly.
4. Once both gear racks are engaged, use a tape measure and measure from the column to the end
of each gear rack. The measurement MUST be the same to ensure that the slide room will be timed
correctly.
5. Apply pressure to one of the gear racks. This will cause both gear racks to move together. At this point,
the gear racks will be back in time.
When reinstalling the system to the slide room, be sure to address the measurements specified in the
Preliminary Visual Inspection section on Page 3. If measurements are not within these specifications,
make necessary adjustments to screw locations to remedy. Adding additional screws may be necessary
in between the pre-drilled spots on the column. If the system is not replaced within those stated
specifications, serious damage to the system may occur.
6. If the above procedure corrects the timing, repeat the same process on the opposite side of the slide, if
necessary.
