Installation Instructions
Read the ENTIRE IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION section at the beginning of this
manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product.
Note:
For additional information regarding the parts listed in the following pages, refer to
Parts List and Diagram
on page 8.
Mounting
This Trailer Jack is designed
specifically for use
with an A-frame hitch.
Never attempt to mount this
Trailer Jack to a hitch or trailer not specifically designed
for it. An example of an A-frame hitch is shown in
Figure A. Check that the Outer Tube (16) of the Jack will
fit into the A-frame opening and that the Mounting Plate
holes align with the bolt locations on the trailer. Only a
qualified technician should modify the trailer if needed.
1. Block the wheels and support the trailer A-Frame
securely using jack stands (sold separately).
2. Disconnect the trailer battery
ground cable, if equipped.
3. If replacing a jack, remove existing jack.
4. Remove the Lock Pin (22) and slide out
the Footpad (23) from the Jack.
5. To ensure proper grounding, remove paint from
around one bolt hole on the Jack, and remove
paint from around the matching bolt hole on the
trailer tongue. If the paint layer is thick, add a flat
washer (sold separately) between the jack and the
trailer to provide good contact. Exposed metal can
be painted after assembly to inhibit corrosion.
6. Insert the bottom section of the Outer Tube (16) into
the A-Frame jack opening so that the Motor Housing
is toward the front of the trailer and the Mounting
Plate holes line up with the bolt holes in the trailer.

the positive (+) terminal of the battery.
Note:
This Jack has a built-in circuit breaker that will
automatically trip and reset if amperage is too high.

the negative (-) battery terminal.
