I went to ZipDee website and here is the Parts List for slide topper awnings in PDF. I need part number 8 - HEAD CASTING WITH COTTER PIN
#210430
Is this part under spring tension? Can I pull the cotter pin without any issue?

You don't worry that a stick will punch a hole in the air seal? I noticed you said you cleaned once at home and not before each time you pulled the slide in...
What about when it is raining?

The problem is with topper when you put the slide in the leaves do not have any place to go. Without toppers the brush that is around the slide pushes them off. Without topper I've found out it is much easier to clean the top of the slide. When I get home I put the slide out and am able to clean any dirt off the top without any problem. I often polish the top with Wash and Wax. I have had both and I like no toppers.
