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 Assembly
Diagram
on page 10.
Mounting
This Electric Jack is designed to replace an existing
manual-only trailer jack. Check that the Outer
Tube (1A) of the Electric Jack will fit into the existing
jack location and that the Mounting Plate holes align
with the bolt locations on your 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. Remove the existing jack.
4. Remove the Lock Pin (9A) and slide out
the Footpad (10A) 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 (1A) 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.

7. Secure the Mounting Plate to the A-Frame using
nuts, bolts and washers (all sold separately) as
listed under Hardware in the Specifications chart
on page 4. Slide a star washer onto each bolt,
then insert them from the top side and attach a star
washer and lock nut from the underside of the frame.
Tighten mounting hardware firmly to 15 – 20 ft. lb.
Use a torque wrench to confirm tightness.
8. Replace the Footpad and insert the Lock Pin.
Wiring
The Jack needs to be properly wired for use. Have
a qualified technician perform the wiring if you
are not familiar with the following procedures.
1. If wiring to the trailer’s electrical system,
disconnect the trailer battery ground cable.
Connect the black wire lead from the Jack to
the positive (+) battery terminal and include
an ON/OFF switch and fuse (sold separately)
in the wiring so you can turn off power to the
unit. Reconnect the battery ground cable.
Note:
If connecting to the trailer’s electrical
system, do not exceed its rating.
2. If wiring to the vehicle battery, route a 10-gauge wire
(sold separately) from the positive (+) terminal of a
12VDC battery to a location near the Jack. Attach the
female side of a quick connect (sold separately) to
the end of the wire and the male side to the positive
Jack wire. Plug the quick connect sections together.
