Fih Wheel Detailed Instructions
Installation time: 3 - 6 minutes per pad
• SnapPad installation should be performed on a level or near level surface - preferably a hard surface
(concrete or asphalt). Wheel chocks should be placed in front of and behind the RV wheels for additional
safety.
• Be sure to thoroughly clean and dry your landing feet prior to installing your SnapPads.
• SnapPads MUST FIRST BE INSTALLED ON THE FRONT JACKS before continuing to the rear 2 or 4
leveling jacks. Front jack installation MUST BE DONE while the RV is hitched up to the truck. For safety,
also connect the RV’s break-away cable to the truck before installation.
• Operate your jacks manually and install your SnapPads one at a time. If your jacks deploy in pairs, take
note which jack hits the ground first and start there.
• Spread a small bead of concentrated dish soap around the lip of the SnapPad and metal landing foot
to aid installation. Do NOT use any petroleum based lubricant, such as WD-40® as it may negatively
react with the binder in your SnapPads.
• Extend your jacks until about 4 inches from the ground then stop so you can properly align your jack and
SnapPad. KEEP YOUR FINGERS AND ANY FOREIGN OBJECTS CLEAR WHEN LOWERING
THE JACK INTO PLACE.
• Carefully place and center your SnapPad under the landing jack foot. Continue to lower the front landing
jack until it touches the SnapPad. If you feel that the landing pad is not centered on the SnapPads,
retract the landing gear enough to re-center the SnapPads and proceed with extending the landing gear
to complete the SnapPad installation.
• Once SnapPad installation is complete on the front landing jacks, the TRUCK MUST BE DISCONNECTED
AND PULLED AWAY from the RV before installing SnapPads on the rear 2 or 4 leveling jack pads.
• If your lip hasn’t fully engaged, raise your jack and place a shim (small piece of wood no thicker than
1/4”) under the side that hasn’t engaged. Lower your jack again until that side snaps into place.
• Wipe o any excess soap and repeat installation process on the remaining jacks.
