Maintenance; Fluid Recommendation - Lippert Components Ground Control 2.0 Master Owner's Manual

Maintenance

1.
Remove dirt and road debris from leveling jacks and landing gear and stabilizer struts (if equipped) as
needed.
2.
If jacks are down for extended periods, it is recommended to spray exposed jack tubes with a spray
lubricant every three months for protection. If the 5th Wheel is located in a salty air environment, it is
recommended to spray the jack tubes every 4 - 6 weeks.
3. Each month, check that the fluid level is within 1/4" of the fill spout lip while leveling jacks and slide-
outs are fully retracted.
NOTE: Always fill the reservoir with the leveling jacks and slide-outs fully retracted. Filling the reservoir
when leveling jacks and slide-outs are extended will cause the reservoir to overflow into its
compartment when the leveling jacks and slide-outs are retracted.
4. Inspect and clean all of the 5th Wheel's power and electrical connections prior to the first use of the
5th Wheel at the start of the traveling season and prior to storing the 5th Wheel. If corrosion is evident,
clean all corrosion with a wire brush, then apply dielectric grease to the connections.
5.
Make sure to turn the manual override set screw on the valve back to the counterclockwise position
after extending or retracting the landing gear or leveling jacks.

Fluid Recommendation

The LCI Level-Up Automatic Leveling system is pre-filled, primed and ready to operate direct from
the manufacturer. Type "A" Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is utilized. Lippert Components, Inc.
recommends ATF with Dexron III® or Mercon 5® or a blend of both.
In colder temperatures, less than 10 °F, the leveling jacks and landing gear may extend and retract slowly
due to the fluid's molecular nature. For cold weather operation, fluid specifically formulated for low
temperatures may be desirable. For a list of approved fluid specifications, see TI-188.
Or go to https://www.lci1.com/towable-br-level-up/support-towable-level-up-br-touch-pad/ , click on the
Technical Information Sheets tab, then select TI - 188: Hydraulic Operation Fluid Recommendation from the
listed documents.
