With any hydraulic application, holding position on a cylinder must be done with safety in
mind. Failure in the system may cause the leg(s) to retract or extend on its own.
When working under or near the recreation vehicle, always use jack stands of appropriate
rating to support the weight of the recreation vehicle.
Read the entire operators manual and all precautions prior to operating this equipment.
Do not use the jacks to change the tires. The system is designed as a leveling and
stabilizing system and is not meant to lift the recreation vehicle off the ground.
Do not operate any system functions while anyone is under the recreation vehicle.
Do not attempt to operate the system while the recreation vehicle is in motion.
Never place hands or other parts of the body near hydraulic leaks. Oil may penetrate skin
causing severe injury. Wear safety glasses when inspecting or servicing the system to
protect eyes from dirt, metal chips, or leaks, etc. Follow all other applicable shop safety
practices.
The recreation vehicle should be parked on a fairly level surface. Ensure that there are no
obstructions in the extend or retract paths of the jacks. If the surface is soft due to
saturation or heat, place boards under the jacks to distribute the weight over a larger area.
Using a board which measures approximately 2' wide by 2' in length is recommended.
Ensure the front tires are pointing forward and not to the left or right.
REFERENCE: Refer to manufacturer’s operations manual before operating.
The automatic hydraulic power leveling system allows quick and easy leveling of the recreation
vehicle from the driver’s seat by utilizing the system touch panel. The following instructions are
general operating instructions.
