Lolu hlobo lwesitimela samaslayidi lufihle ujantshi wama-slide, ujantshi wama-slide ogibele amahhashi nezinye izinhlobo zikaloliwe wama-slide. Ingowomzila wama-slide ophakathi nendawo nasezingeni eliphezulu. Isakhiwo segiya sisetshenziselwa ukwenza ama-rails ama-slide abushelelezi kakhulu futhi avumelaniswe. Lolu hlobo lwesitimela samaslayidi futhi sinokuvala kwebhafa noma ukucindezela ukuphinda kuboshwe. Umsebenzi wokuvula usetshenziselwa kakhulu ifenisha ephakathi nendawo ephezulu. Ngenxa yokuthi intengo ibiza kakhulu, ayivamile futhi ifenisha yesimanje, ngakho-ke ayidumile njengamaslayidi ebhola lensimbi. Lolu hlobo lwesilayidi luyithrendi yesikhathi esizayo.

Umzila wesitimela wesilayidi uwuhlobo lwesitimela samaslayidi, okuwuhlobo lomphumela omunca umsindo kanye nobhafa ohlinzeka ngokusebenza kokubhafa kusetshenziswa uketshezi kanye nomthelela okahle wokuphazamisa. Ukukhethwa okuzenzakalelayo kwama-rails ama-slide kufakiwe. Ithembele kubuchwepheshe obusha ukuze ivumelane nesivinini sokuvala sekhabethe. Uma idrowa livalwe ebangeni lokugcina, lizosebenzisa ukucindezela kwamanzi ukuze linciphise isivinini, linciphise amandla okuthonya, futhi lenze umphumela onethezekile lapho livala. Ngisho noma usebenzisa amandla ukusunduza ikhabethe, lizovala ngobumnene, liqinisekise ukunyakaza okuphelele nokuthule. Kubandakanya ujantshi ongaguquki, ujantshi ophakathi nendawo, ujantshi ogudlukayo, ibhola, i-clutch ne-buffer, isivimbeli sifakwa kujantshi ongashintshi; i-buffer ihlanganisa i-piston rod, igobolondo, ne-piston. Ipiston ihlinzekwa ngembobo ephumela kanye nembobo, futhi induku yepiston ishayela Lapho ipiston ihamba, uketshezi lungageleza lusuka kolunye uhlangothi luye kolunye ngembobo edlulayo, ngaleyo ndlela kudlale umphumela wokubhafa kanye nokudambisa. Ivamise ukusetshenziselwa ukuphusha nokudonsa amadrowa.
