31sl bedroom slide motors?

Our bedroom slide is starting to squeal when first starting to deploy. I've been lubing the rails routinely and thought maybe I should lube the motor but I don't know how to get to them. Thanks for the help.

Not sure if you are talking about the Schwintek system. If so, you don't lube the rails....you lube the coupler and the gib.....check out the video on how to lube them:

I was talking of the schwintek system. I thought I had reviewed all the video on that system but missed that one. Thanks

Are you sure that the squealing is not from the slide seals? I've had that happen on my bedroom slide before. Lubing the seals will help with that problem also.

Thanks all for the responses. I lubed the slide per instructions in the video and all is 'normal' again.
