Installation
Rear Jacks
1. When fully retracted, the rear jacks MUST be mounted to
achieve a minimum ground clearance equal to the departure
angle (Fig. 1) to enable maximum level correction. Any
additional ground clearance added to the jack location will
decrease the amount of level correction available to the
system.
2. Bolt the leveling jacks to the mounting brackets to achieve
proper ground clearance. Make sure the bolts are tightened to
the proper torque (52-64 ft/lbs). (Fig.3).
