WARNING
When using an extension wire, DO
NOT use smaller than #10 gauge
wire.
CAUTION
We do not recommend using the
flip‐up type footpad. Doing so
requires the tongue jack to be
altered which voids the warranty
and can cause the failure of the jack.
OPERATION
1. Block trailer wheels securely.
2. The Phoenix 5500 Electric Tongue Jack is
operated by means of the touch pad located
next to the motor housing.
3. To extend jack, push & hold Extend Button.
4. To retract jack, push & hold Retract Button.
5. The GREEN light should turn on and remain
on
while jack is in Extend/Retract operation.
6. If a steady RED light comes on in
Extend/Retract operation, a low voltage
situation exits and the battery needs to be
fully charged.
7. If the RED light flashes quickly for three (3)
seconds, a high amp situation exits and jack
will turn off after three (3) seconds. The jack
will reset itself in five (5) seconds and can be
used again until a high amp situation occurs.
A. The high amp draw situation can be
caused by too much load. Reduce the
tongue weight of the trailer.
B. The high amp draw can also be caused by
worn parts and the jack needs to be
serviced and owner should call Ultra‐Fab
for service options.
