WARNING
•
Do not use the coach leveling sys-
tem as a lift for changing tires or
working under the vehicle.
•
Never check for hydraulic fluid
leaks using your hands and/or any
other body part. The leaking fluid
is under pressure and is capable of
cutting and penetrating your skin,
resulting in severe injury.
•
When extending the rear stabiliz-
ers, do not lift the wheels beyond
ground contact. This overrides the
braking effect of both the trans-
mission's park and the parking
brake. Without this braking, it is
possible for the vehicle to roll
unexpectedly forward (or back-
ward) off the jacks. This could
cause severe injury, or even
death.
•
Holding a control switch in the
"extend" or "retract" position for
a time period longer than neces-
sary to fully extend or retract the
hydraulic cylinders, can cause
overheating and damage to the
pump motor as well as the electri-
cal components.
•
Do not use the leveler as an emer-
gency brake. They are not
designed for any type of vehicle
braking purpose.
•
Do not use the levelers on icy or
slick surfaces on which the foot
pads may slip.
IN THE EVENT OF ACCIDENTAL
EXTENSION.
1. Bring the vehicle to a safe and
complete stop as soon as possible.
2. Turn the leveling systems power
switch on and press the all up
switch.
3. Visually inspect the vehicle
undercarriage for any problems.
DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
SITE SELECTION
1. When selecting a site for parking the vehicle,
choose a spot that is as flat as possible - this
will minimize the extent of leveling.
2. Check that the area under the vehicle is free
from any obstacles that might interfere with
the operation of the levelers. Check the
ground surface to assure the leveler feet have
a flat solid surface for contact. When parking
on grass, soft dirt and/or uneven terrain, it is
advisable to expand the surface area of the
leveler feet by using pads. These pads can be
from 3/4" plywood, cut into 12" squares.
NOTE: Occasionally, in adverse driving condi-
tions, it is possible for mud, ice and other
debris to accumulate around the leveler
units. This debris may interfere with the
operation and should be cleaned off
prior to using the system.
CAUTION
Do not compensate for uneven terrain
by using pads that are thicker than 3".
Pads that are thicker than the leveler's
vertical ground clearance can prevent
breaking contact with the ground
when retracting. This can result in
damage to both the levelers and the
vehicle.
LEVEL BEST CONTROL PANEL
LAYOUT
The control panel consists of seven switches
and six light indicators. The seven switches
include main power on/off, all jacks retract, a
diamond shaped switch for bi-lateral leveling,
and four switches for independent operation of
leg extension and retraction. The position of the
four independent leg leveling switches are repre-
sentative of the leveling jack positions on your
motor home, with the front of the vehicle being
indicated by the top of the panel.
