Leveling and Stabilizing<br />
When you plan to stay in the same place for several days, weeks or months,<br />
you will want your trailer to be as level and steady as possible. Check the<br />
attitude with a small spirit level set on the inside work counter or the trailer<br />
hitch “A-Frame”. (See Diagram Below) If a correction is necessary then YOU<br />
MUST LEVEL FROM SIDE TO SIDE FIRST This can he done easily by backing<br />
the trailer up one or more 2” x 6” boards. (See Diagram) We do not recommend<br />
placing tires in a hole for leveling.<br />
LEVEL FROM FRONT TO REAR by disconnecting the hitch from the tow<br />
vehicle, putting the jack pad under the hitch jack and adjusting the jack up<br />
or down until you are level. Block or chock the wheels to keep the trailer from<br />
rolling. Use STABILIZING JACKS at all four corners as shown in the diagram to<br />
eliminate the natural spring action of the axles.<br />

NOTICE: Optional STABILIZING JACKS, whether manual or power, should only<br />
be used to stabilize trailer.<br />
Warning: Whenever the trailer must be lifted with a jack, as<br />
when changing a tire or leveling on very rough terrain, ALWAYS PLACE<br />
THE LIFTING JACK UNDER THE MAIN FRAME RAIL. A label is provided to<br />
indicate the proper position for the jack. NEVER USE STABILIZING JACKS<br />
TO LIFT THE TRAILER.<br />
