Before unhooking the trailer from the tow vehicle, be sure the jack foot is
in place on the tongue jack and block the trailer wheels to keep the trailer

The use of stabilizer jacks on a recreational vehicle is a popular and
useful option. They provide a reasonable amount of stability while using,
occupying, and moving around in your camper. It is important to

designed to bear the weight of a recreational vehicle.
To operate the stabilizer jack, place crank onto the jack shaft and turn
