LEVELING - HYDRAULIC (Optional)
A remote control panel located next to the driver seat operates the leveling system. The three
point leveling system features a multiple warning system with Jacks Down light and a warning bell
sounds when any jack is extended between 2 to 6 inches from fully retracted position. The leveling
system pump is located in the generator compartment.
CAUTION:
Prior to leveling it is important that all jacks be in contact with the ground to sta-
bilize and support the frame. The hydraulic jack system is designed to reduce
sight selection problems and stabilize the motorhome when parked. No single jack
should be used solely to level the motorhome. Using an improper leveling process
can result in applying excess torsion stress/twist to the chassis, frame and body,
resulting in damage to the windshield or entry door malfunction.
CAUTION:
The leveling jacks are not designed for changing tires. This can cause problems
with the suspension system, frame alignment and damage to the windshields.
Never use the jacks to elevate any wheel position off the ground.
CAUTION:
Before leveling the motorhome survey the area around and under the motorhome
for obstructions that can damage the motorhome or undercarriage components
when the air bags are deflated. Damage to the mud flap may occur if it is located
over a raised area when suspension is lowered.
CAUTION:
Ensure the potential jack contact points are clear of obstructions or depressions
before operation. Keep all people clear of the motorhome during the leveling sys-
tem operations. Never expose hands or other parts of the body near hydraulic
leaks. Hydraulic lines are under high pressure. Oil leaks may cut and penetrate
the skin causing serious injury.
CAUTION:
DO NOT move the motorhome while jacks are in contact with the ground or
extended. Damage to the jacks may occur.
