We have a Newmar Canyon Star 3710.
It comes with a bar that locks the slide out in place when in use. Having twice (once me, once my wife) now 'forgotten" to check before trying to close the slide out, I am wondering what harm might come from not using the locking bar? (one instance took a service call to readjust the slide... not fun when you thought you were ready to get underway..)
I am assuming that since it locks the slide out in place when in use it must serve some purpose, but what am I giving up when I don't lock the slide out in place?
We have added a sign near the controls to remind us of the need to check this, but thought I'd ask anyway.
