- Harness checks, fuse checks, controller placement, sensor placement, zero-point calibration, homing, jack service, and motor/controller repairs should be handled by a trained RV technician.
Never use leveling jacks as service stands. Keep people clear of jacks, pinch points, and trailer movement; do not service jack wiring, sensors, motors, or controllers unless qualified.
Operate only with people, pets, and property clear of the trailer and jacks. Do not lift the trailer fully off the ground or use the leveling system for service support.
