When clutch noise occurs, release the switch. Failure to do so may also destroy the clutch, in which case the entire power kit will have to be replaced.
Potential damage to the trailer frame may occur if legs or power kits are operated unevenly. Front of trailer must remain horizontal.
Do NOT attempt to lift or level without having both foot plates properly installed.
When cranking jack or coupling trailer, secure trailer from rolling
These landing gear jacks are designed for vertical loading. Excessive side forces must be avoided.
Do NOT attempt to adjust the drop legs when the landing gear jacks are under load.
Owner or operator must never position any part of their body under any portion of the jack or the load being supported or allow anyone else to be positioned under the load being supported.
Disregard could cause property damage and/or serious bodily injury.
Do NOT drop trailer off the hitch.
Do NOT exceed maximum rated capacity.
Make certain the drop leg safety retaining pins are fully inserted through both sides of the inner tube and the drop leg tube before using the landing gear jacks.
Do NOT use these landing gear jacks to lift trailer for servicing or tire changes.
Retract jack legs and drop legs fully before moving the trailer.
Failure to follow these warnings and instructions can result in property damage and/or serious bodily injury.
Fuses blown
Circuit is overdrawn overloading the jack and it is drawing too much amperage
Gear Box of the jack is damaged causing the motor to overload
If your motor is making a clicking sound this is the safety clutch in the motor preventing damage to the motor.
This is not the gear box.
When clutch noise occurs, release the power switch.
Failure to do so will result in damage to motor and possibly other system components.
Check for binding
Your trailer legs should be cleaned and checked for debris on a regular basis. Sand and dirt will cause legs to bind.
To clean landing gear legs
Extend landing legs as far as possible, clean drop tube and inner ram tube. Coat exposed surface of tubes with silicone spray lubricant.
Coat inside of handle alignment tube with silicone spray lubricant.
Oil shaft bushing in gear box and leg gear heads with SAE 30 oil.
Lubricate gears in gear box and landing leg gear heads with extreme pressure grease.
*Do NOT open motor housing as this voids warranty.
Check for damage to legs
Any damage to the legs such a bending or denting will cause binding.
Check power to system
Check that your batteries and power supplies are at full levels to prevent damage to the motor.
Check wiring connections at battery. Clean terminals with a solution of baking soda and water.
Cover with a thin coat of grease.Check wiring harness fuse, if blown replace with appropriate fuse.
Do not exceed weight limit of landing gear system
Do not use the landings legs to lift the trailer during tire changes, axle work or trailer servicing (the trailer weight will exceed the capacity of the landing legs).
The landing legs are designed to stabilize a portion of the trailer’s weight.
Support the front end of the trailer with structural stands rated for the GVWR of the trailer.
