Preparation

1. 

Engine must be running, the park brake must be set, and the transmission in “park” (”neutral” for diesel 

coaches) for the jacks to operate.

2. 

Check leveling site to make sure obstructions have been cleared away for proper jack operation.

Operation

Leveling Coach

1. 

Turn on the ignition and start the coach. Your leveling control will start a self check sequence  

indicated by the lights on the panel blinking in a rotating pattern. It will turn off when it has  

finished its self check.

2. 

Push the ON/OFF (Fig.1A) button on the control panel. The system is now operational and ON/OFF 

(Fig.1A) LED will turn on. (On some controls, there will be a 10 second wait period before operation is 

allowed. During this time, the WAIT LIGHT (Fig. 1G) will flash.

Note:  

Check to see that the LOW VOLTAGE (Fig. 1L) light is not illuminated. If so, start the engine and wait 

a few minutes to ensure that the battery voltage is good. The engine must be running for the jacks 

to operate.

3. 

Check to see that the ENGAGE PARK BRAKE (Fig. 1M*) light is not illuminated. If so, engage the parking 

brake. (Your coach will have to be in neutral or park to operate the system.)

4. 

Push the AUTO (Fig.1C) button. The automatic leveling system will begin its leveling procedure. Please 

avoid movement in the coach during automatic leveling as it can cause errors in the results. It will 

signal that it has completed the process by illuminating the center green Power Gear LEVEL (Fig.1E) 

light. Check to make sure that all jacks are on the ground. Also check to make sure that no tire is off the 

ground. If so, your leveling process is complete. If further adjustments are needed, or one or more tires 

are off the ground, retract all jacks and refer to the “Manual Operation” section of this manual.

5. 

You can then turn the system off by pushing the ON/OFF (Fig.1A) button again.

Retracting Leveling Jacks

1. 

Turn on the ignition and start the coach.

2. 

Turn on the system by pushing the ON/OFF (Fig.1A) button. The system is now operational and the 

ON/OFF (Fig.1A) LED will turn on.

3. 

Push the RETRACT-ALL JACKS (Fig.1B) button. When the JACKS DOWN (Fig.1H) light turns off, visually 

check to make sure that all jacks have fully retracted. If so, your coach leveling system is ready to travel.
