Telescopic table wobbling

[DerekDethleff]

My Dethleffs Trend has developed a wobbly table. have slid down covers and it appears the central metal strut needs tightening. Removing the nuts on the floor plate does not appear to help. As the plate seems to be fixed to floor. Suspect I need to tighten strut from underneath. Photo attached . Anyone got any tips? Thanks.

If the floor plate is the same as Hymer's version then removing the nuts should be enough but you do have to give the leg quite a wobble to free it.

I had the same problem on a Pilote. To release the table leg from the floor I banged stiff old fashioned paint scrapers into the join holding them very flat to avoid damaging the vinyl. Underneath I found countersunk allen screws which had come loose. Unfortunately I damaged the sliding plastic covers looking for the problem. My table top is silly heavy and it would have been easier to take it off first in hindsight.

Thanks all. You are correct, once the 4 x allen screws removed a sharp bang to the leg dislodged it. Kind of stuck to floor. Tightened up the 4 screws attached to leg and table no solid again. Thanks again.
