Operation
Unhitching:
To use the Trailer Jack as an aid in unhitching the trailer, first make sure that the Trialer Jack is securely
attached to the trailer tongue. Check out bolt/nut connection to make sure the Trailer Tongue Assembly
is properly connected to the trailer tongue.
Take the neccessary precautions against uncontrolled trailer movement, and loosen the trailer hitching
mechanism. Attach the Crank Handle, if it has been detached in prior use, and turn the handle clock-
wise to increase the length of the Trailer Jack until the tongue has been lifted from the hitch ball. Keep
all body parts clear of the hitch, the tongue, and the area underneath the tongue.
Hitching:
To use the Trailer Jack as an aid in hitching the trailer, maneuver the trailer so that the trailer’s hitch is
directly over the towing vehicle’s hitch ball. Turn the Crank Handle counterclockwise to shorten the
Trailer Jack, and lower the tongue hitch onto the hitch ball. Tighten the hitch retainer mechanism.
Continue turning the Crank Handle until the Trailer Jack is fully retracted.
It is recommended that the Crank Handle be detached in preparation for towing. Keep all body parts
clear of the hitch, the tongue, and the area underneath.
Leveling and Moving:
In the unhitched mode, the trailer can be leveled or adjusted in pitch angle by turning the Crank Handle
in either clockwise or counterclockwise direction to lengthen or shorten the Trailer Jack. In this mode,
the trailer is a three wheeled vehicle that can be moved from one position to another, but only with
suitable precautions against uncontrolled movement. If the trailer is to be stored in this mode, it is
advised that the Crank Handle be detached and that the trailer wheels be properly blocked.
Towing:
When the Trailer Jack is attached while the trailer is being towed, the Trailer Jack must be fully retracted
(before towing begins, turn the Crank Handle counterclockwise until the Trailer Jack is fully retracted).
The Crank Handle needs to be removed and stored in a safe place while the trailer is being towed.
