Maintenance
1.
For optimum performance, the system requires full battery current and voltage. The battery must be
maintained at full capacity.
2.
Check the terminals and other connections at the battery, the controller, and the jacks for corrosion
and loose or damaged connections.
3.
Remove dirt and road debris from jacks as needed.
4.
If jacks are down for extended periods, it is recommended to spray exposed leveling jack rods with a
silicone lubricant every three months for protection. If the unit is located in a salty environment, it is
recommended to spray the rods every 4-6 weeks.
Fluid Recommendation
Do NOT use ATF Type E fluid. Type F ATF is NOT compatible with LCI hydraulic system seals.
Seals will not work properly.
Automatic transmission fluid (ATF) with Dexron III® or Mercon V® is recommended by Lippert
Components Inc.
NOTE:
Dextron and Mercon can be safely combined in the reservoir.
The leveling system is pre-filled, primed and ready to operate direct from the manufacturer. Type “A”
Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is utilized.
In colder temperatures, less than 10 °F, the leveling jacks may extend and retract slowly due to the fluid’s
molecular nature. For cold weather operation, fluid specially formulated for low temperatures may be
desirable. For a list of approved fluid specifications, see
