1 . Use the checklist on the previous page to provide a guideline for
setting up the Level Up install .
2 . Determine how and where the leveling jack brackets will be
welded to the frame of the coach .
NOTE: The rear Level Up jacks should be mounted approximately
behind the rear tires, within the plane of the departure angle
(Fig . 1), and aligned with each other . The front Level Up
jacks should be mounted approximately 1 foot in front of the
front tires . Front jacks can be offset up to 24 inches to clear
obstructions, i .e . entry steps . Determine the location of the
current power unit (if one is already on the coach) or where the
new power unit and valve manifolds will be mounted .
3. Check for any obstructions that will require modification of the
brackets prior to welding (slide-out cross shafts, outriggers, or
manual override connections for slide-outs) .
4 . Extend all slide-out rooms . This will clear space for welding the
Level Up brackets by moving the fender skirts out of the way .
5 . Drop the underbelly from the outside edge of the unit . Start on
the side closest to where the pump will be located and un-bolt
the underbelly from the front of the unit to approximately 2 feet
beyond the rear tire . On the opposite side of the unit, un-bolt
the underbelly from approximately 2 feet behind the rear tire
to approximately 2 feet in front of the front tire . Do not remove
any bolts from the center of the underbelly . Do not drop the
entire underbelly . Attaching and aligning the entire underbelly
will be more difficult than working around the underbelly .
6 . Locate and move any wires, hoses, etc . that could be damaged
while welding the jack brackets to the frame . Check both
inside and outside of the frame . Shields made of metal or
wood can be used to push wires and hoses away from the
frame area where welding is to be done .
7 . Bolt the footpads to the jacks and torque to 132 ft/lbs . Make
sure to use Loctite® on the footpad bolts . See bolt in (Fig . 2)
assembly for reference .
NOTE: Do not try to remove the bolt once it is tightened .
Removing the bolt could result in damage to the cylinder .
