are expected. High winds can cause the
unit to tip or fall, causing severe injury
or machine damage.

2. Place the unit on firm ground that is relatively flat
(less than 5° slope), and then block the wheels to
prohibit movement. This will make it easier to level
the unit.
3. See Figure 3-1. Pull the locking pin (A) on the
tongue jack (E) and rotate the jack 90°. Reinstall
the locking pin. Rotate the jack handle clockwise to
raise the trailer tongue off the towing vehicle.
4. A grounding stud (B) is located on the rear frame of
the trailer near the left side outrigger. For ground-
ing requirements, follow local, state, or National
Electrical Code (NEC) guidelines.
5. See Details C–D. Pull the locking pins (C) on the
outriggers (D) and pull each outrigger out until the
spring loaded locking pin snaps back into place.
Pull the locking pin on each outrigger jack (F) and
rotate each jack 180° so the jack pad is facing
down. Reinstall the locking pin.
