Troubleshooting
Fuse
The PowerStance Tongue Jack is provided with a 30A
ATO-type in-line fuse which will need to be replaced if it
blows. The battery must be fully charged prior to operating
the PowerStance Tongue Jack. Low voltage from the
battery will cause the fuse to blow prematurely.
NOTE:
When RET or EXT on the switch is pushed, the
light above the switch will turn on automatically, and remain
on for five minutes. It will then automatically turn off.
Clutch
The PowerStance Tongue Jack is provided with a clutch
and a motor. The clutch will slip under two conditions:
A.
The PowerStance Tongue Jack has reached its extend
or retract limit.
B.
The tongue weight of the trailer has exceeded the
capacity limits of the PowerStance Tongue Jack. Items
stored in the trailer can vastly influence the weight on the
PowerStance Tongue Jack. Reorganize stored items if the
PowerStance Tongue Jack motor clutch continues to slip.
NOTE:
Release the switch immediately when the clutch
noise occurs. The clutch is the overload protection for the
motor. The clutch should not slip during normal operation.
This will cause excessive wear on the clutch and the motor.
F.
Turn the manual crank handle
(Fig.11)
clockwise until
trailer is supported and the coupler clears the hitch ball.
G.
Move the tow vehicle away from the trailer.
H.
Lower the trailer until it is level by turning the manual
crank handle counterclockwise.

is pinned securely in place with the clevis pin and hairpin
cotter pin

(Fig.10A)
on top of the
PowerStance Tongue Jack’s gearbox to expose the
manual drive shaft.
D.

(Fig.11A)
into the manual drive shaft.

the coupler properly mounts the hitch ball and the leg of
the PowerStance Tongue Jack
