Leveling Your Trailer
Leveling your RV is critical for
several reasons. Your camping
experience will be more pleasant in
a level unit. It is important for your
RV to be level for proper operation
of items such as the refrigerator,
the slideout system and draining
tanks, if applicable.
Using blocks under the RV tires is a common way to level the unit. Blocks for this purpose
can be purchased from various RV resources or made out of wood. The proper size of
blocks are required to prevent causing damage to the tires. Make sure the blocks used cover
the entire footprint of the RV tire. Refer to Fig. 5 for proper tire blocking.
Additional Set Up
STABILIZER JACKS
1. Insert the crank onto the stabilizer jack shaft.
2. Turn it clockwise to lower the jack. Continue lowering the jack until the frame of the
trailer begins to rise slightly.
3. Equalize the jacks for best support. This may require that you adjust each jack several
times. When not parked on cement, you may wish to place a wood or hard plastic
block under the jack for convenience.
I
WARNING: DO NOT USE THE STABILIZER JACKS TO LEVEL
THE UNIT. It is important to remember that the stabilizer jacks are to
be used only for support while occupying and moving around the
trailer. They are not designed to bear the weight of the trailer.
