INSTALLATION
1. Block the wheels and support the trailer "A"
frame securely.
2. Remove the existing jack.
NOTE: Save the original nuts, bolts, and washers
that came with the jack you are replacing for
installing the Phoenix 5500 Electric Tongue Jack.
3. Install the Electric Tongue Jack using original
nuts and bolts. Depending on user's
personal preference, align the motor head so
that the motor housing is facing the front of
the "A" frame or so that the motor housing is
facing the driver side of the trailer.
4. The Electric Tongue Jack was designed to
replace an existing manual jack. The diameter
of the outer tube of your chosen jack, will
need to match the existing hole size, or you
will need to modify the hole diameter to fit.
5. Install Fuse Holder. By cutting the RED wire
loop, then either crimping or soldering the
connections, attach one end to the positive
post of the trailer battery. The other end of
the fuse holder's RED wire will be connected
to the RED wire from the jack. This RED wire
provides 12V power to jack.
6. Connect the RED positive lead to the positive
terminal of the battery. Connect the BLACK
ground wire to negative terminal of the
battery.
