The slide on my 178 must have skipped a tooth as one slide comes in slightly later than the other. It is otherwise working fine. I remember something about re-synching them with a 6" in/out method but cant seem to find any reference when searching the forum. Anyone have a quick recomendtion? Is there a damage potential for me to keep running them out of sync? Thanks for any advice.

Just an update that I extended the slide all the way out, then brought it back in 8” before re-extending it back out. I repeated 3 times and that solved the problem. Cheers.
