NOTE: When parked on soft surfaces, the use of jack
pads is recommended (not supplied by TMC). Jack
pads can be easily made from 3/4 inch plywood, cut
into 12-to-16 inch squares or circles.
TO RETRACT:
1. Ensure that all slideout rooms are fully retracted
BEFORE retracting leveling jacks (refer to slideout
instructions).
2. Ensure all people and pets remain clear of the jacks.
Remove any equipment or items that may have been
stored underneath the motorhome.
3. Start the engine and ensure the vehicle's transmission
is in park (for front engine) or neutral (for diesel
pushers).
4. Ensure the vehicle's parking brake is engaged.
5. Press the ON button on the Leveling Jacks Control
Panel.
6. Press the RETRACT ALL button. e panel will indi-
cate when all jacks have retracted.
7. Before moving the motorhome, ensure all jacks have
retracted by physically looking under the motorhome
and conrming that all jacks are in their fully retracted
position.
Manual Leveling with Hydraulic Jacks
You may encounter some circumstances where automatic
leveling of the motorhome can not be obtained. If possible,
retract the jacks and re-position the motorhome to a more
level parking area. If that is not possible or feasible, you
may attempt to manually level the motorhome by deploy-
ing the jack rams in pairs.
1. Follow all leveling precautions listed previously.
2. Start the motorhome's engine, ensuring the parking
brake is engaged and the transmission is in:
a. NEUTRAL for Class A Diesel Pushers;
b. PARK for Class A and Class C front engine gas or
diesel motorhomes.
3. Press the ON button on the Leveling Jacks Control
Panel.
4. Press either the FRONT or REAR button on the
Control Panel. Depending on which switch is pushed,
either the front or rear pair of jack rams will deploy.
Release the switch when the jacks contact the ground
(you should feel the motorhome slightly rise).
5. Press the opposite switch and hold until the motor-
home rises slightly. Watch the control panel for an
indication that the motorhome is level front-to-back.
6. Press either the LEFT or RIGHT button on the
Control Panel (this will move the le or right-side pair
of jack rams). Watch the control panel to determine if
the controller can sense that the motorhome is level
le-to-right.
7. If needed, press the opposite side switch while
watching the control panel for an indication that the
motorhome is level le-to-right.
8. Repeat this process, FRONT-to-BACK and LEFT-to-
RIGHT until the controller indicates the motorhome
is level.
9. Turn OFF the Leveling Jack Control Panel; turn o the
motorhome's engine, while keeping the parking brake
engaged.
IMPORTANT: never completely li a wheel or wheels
o the ground with the leveling jacks. is creates an
unstable situation. You may need to manually adjust the
jacks or re-position the motorhome so that all wheels
remain in contact with the ground.
NOTE: Complete instructions regarding the operation
and maintenance of the hydraulic leveling system
installed on your motorhome are available through
your on-line TMC Owners Resource account.
