Manual slide location

I just bought a 2010 Copper Canyon 252FWRLS fifth wheel. I would like to know how to access/locate the manual mode to operate the slide room. The Lippert manual is of no help and a call to Lippert did not satisfy me. Can anyone out there instruct me on locating the manual mechanism?

What type of slide is it?
Gear, cable, or hydraulic?

It is Lippert rack and pinion (gear). The pictures in Lippert manual do not match what I have.

The access to the manual crank for our slide (08 Cougar 5th wheel) is located underneath the unit. On ours, there is a "cutout" in the black coroplast which has a 3-sided "flap" or "door". This flap is situated on the passenger side about 18 inches in front our steps - in front of the wheel. It is pretty much in line with the leading edge of the slide and the front rack and pinion gear.

Open the flap and peek in. You should find the slide motor and one end of a hex shaft. Using a ratchet, your can move the slide in or out - very slowly mind you. The wire to the motor should be disconnected to prevent electrical damage to the motor.
