8.  Routine Service and Inspection

8.1 Landing Gear Inspection (Before Use)

Before use, inspect the landing gear for cracks, bent components, 
or damaged/missing hardware, and any noticeable defects. 
The landing gear must be repaired prior to operation to avoid 
damage and possible injury.

Failure to check the condition of landing 
gear prior to operating could result in use 
of damaged product which, if not avoided, 
could result in death or serious injury.

8.2 Lubrication

The landing gear requires lubrication whether it is used 
frequently or sits idle for extended periods of time. If left 
idle and un-greased, hard cranking could result. Use high 
quality grease for normal applications. For low temperature 
applications, use low temperature grease. Follow these steps 
to maintain expected performance 

(Figure 27)

:

Failure to properly lubricate the landing 
gear when required could result in 
damage to the landing gear.

1.  Place the trailer on level ground, chock the tires, and 

support the trailer independently of the landing gear. 

2.  Fully retract the landing gear, then using high gear, 

extend the leg 2-3 turns and lubricate the lift-screw 
assembly through grease fitting “A”. Apply 1/2 lb.  
of grease.

3.  Lubricate the gearbox, using grease fitting “B”.  

Apply 1/4 lb. of grease. 

4.  Lubricate the bevel gear, using grease fitting “C”.  

Apply 1/4 lb. of grease. 

5.  Distribute the lubrication by fully extending and 

retracting the leg several times.
