Safety Information
Read and understand all instructions and safety labels before starting any procedures stated in this manual. Adhere to all safety labels to prevent serious personal injury and/or product damage. Failure to follow instructions and safety labels may void product warranty.
Be sure to park the trailer on solid, level ground. Ensure all jack landing locations are cleared of debris and obstructions and also free of depressions. People and pets should be clear of trailer while operating the leveling system. Ensure the battery of the trailer is fully charged or that the trailer is plugged into shore power prior to attempting to operate the system. Level Up requires a minimum of 12.75V DC from the battery for proper operation. Be sure to keep hands and other body parts clear of fluid leaks. Hydraulic fluid leaks in the Lippert Leveling System may be under high pressure and can cause serious skin-penetrating injuries.
The “WARNING” symbol above is a sign that a procedure has a safety risk involved and may cause death or serious personal injury if not performed safely and within the parameters set forth in this
manual.
Failure to act in accordance with the following may result in death, serious injury, trailer damage or voiding of the component warranty.
Lippert recommends that a trained professional be employed to change the tires on the trailer. Ensure that the trailer is properly supported with jack stands, or other adequate devices, under the frame of the trailer prior to commencing any service or repair procedure. Any attempts to change the tires or perform other service while trailer is supported solely by the Lippert Level Up could result in death, serious injury, trailer
or property damage.

Maintenance
Fluid Recommendation
ATF with Dexron III® or Mercon 5® or a blend of both is recommended by Lippert. Type “A” Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is utilized and approved. Hydraulic system operation in climates at or below 40 degrees F (4 degrees C) may result in the following: · Slow operation during extension/retraction · Incomplete retraction of jacks during Auto Retract procedure NOTE: A visual inspection of the jacks in the retract position is recommended after completing Auto Retract. For a list of approved fluid specifications, scan this QR Code or go to: TI-188 – Hydraulic Operation Fluid Recommendation.
Preventative Maintenance
1. Check hydraulic fluid in reservoir every 12 months. If fluid is a clear, red color, do not change. If fluid is milky, pink and murky, and not clear red in color, drain reservoir and add new fluid. Hydraulic fluid in reservoir should be changed a minimum of every five years.
NOTE: Check the fluid only when all the jacks are fully retracted.
NOTE: When checking the hydraulic fluid level, fill to within 1/4″ to 1/2″ of fill spout.
2. Inspect and clean all power unit electrical connections every 12 months. If corrosion is evident, use a small amount of lubricant to remove corrosion. Contacts must be cleaned with a non-residue cleaner prior to use. Lippert recommends the use of an electrical contact cleaner spray.
3. Remove dirt and road debris from jacks as needed.
The coach should be supported at both front and rear axles with jack stands before working underneath. Failure to do so may result in death, serious personal injury or severe product or
property damage.
4. If jacks are down for extended periods, it is recommended to spray exposed jack rods with a dry silicone lubricant every three months for protection. If the trailer is located in a salty environment, it is recommended to spray the rods every four to six weeks.
Manual Override
The Lippert Level Up Automatic Leveling System can be manually operated with an electric drill. In the event of electrical or system failure, this manual method of extending and retracting the jacks can be used. See the instructions below. NOTE: Unhook the power unit motor from the power source prior to attempting the manual override
procedure.

System
Failure to act in accordance with the following may result in death or serious personal injury.
The use of the Ultra Level Leveling System to support the coach for any reason other than that for which it is intended is prohibited by Lippert’s limited warranty. The Ultra Level Leveling System is designed as a “leveling” system only and should not be used to provide service for any other reason under the coach such as changing tires or servicing the leveling system.
Lippert Components, Inc. recommends that a trained professional be employed to change the tires on the coach. Any attempts to change tires or perform other services while the coach is supported by the Lippert leveling system could result in damage to the motor home and/or cause death or serious injury.
1. Be sure to park the coach on solid, level ground.
2. Clear all jack landing locations of debris and obstructions.
3. Locations should also be free of depressions.
4. When parking the coach on extremely soft surfaces, utilize load distribution pads under each jack.
5. People and pets should be clear of coach while operating leveling system.
6. Be sure to keep hands and other body parts clear of fluid leaks. Oil leaks in the Lippert Leveling System may be under high pressure and can cause serious skin penetrating injuries.
7. Never lift the coach completely off the ground. Lifting the coach so the wheels are not touching ground will create an unstable and unsafe condition.
Prior to Operation
The leveling system shall only be operated under the following conditions:
1. The coach is parked on a reasonably level surface.
2. The coach “parking brake” is engaged.
3. The coach transmission should be in the neutral or park position.
4. Be sure all persons, pets and property are clear of the coach while Lippert leveling system is in operation.
System Description
Please read and study the operating manual before you operate the leveling system.
The Ultra Level Leveling System is an electric/hydraulic system. A 12V DC electric motor drives a hydraulic pump that moves fluid through a system of hoses, fittings and jacks to level and stabilize the coach.
NOTE: Mechanical portions of the Ultra Level Leveling System are replaceable. Contact Lippert Components, Inc. to obtain replacement parts.

Fluid Recommendation
ATF with Dexron III® or Mercon 5® or a blend of both is recommended by Lippert. Type “A” Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is utilized and approved. Hydraulic system operation in climates at or below 40 degrees F (4 degrees C) may result in the following: · Slow operation during extension/retraction · Incomplete retraction of jacks during Auto Retract procedure NOTE: A visual inspection of the jacks in the retract position is recommended after completing Auto Retract. For a list of approved fluid specifications, scan this QR Code or go to: TI-188 – Hydraulic Operation Fluid Recommendation.
Component Description
The Ultra Level Leveling System consists of the following major components: · Lippert jacks are rated at a lifting capacity appropriate for your coach. Each jack has a 9″ diameter (63.5 Square inch) shoe on a ball swivel for maximum surface contact on all surfaces. (12″ Dia. – 113 Sq. In. shoe also available.) · Each jack is powered from a central 12V DC motor/pump assembly, which also includes the hydraulic oil reservoir tank, control valve manifold, and solenoid valves. · The Ultra Level Leveling System is controlled electronically from the driver’s seat of the coach. The control panel is mounted in the dash. The system can be operated in a manual mode or a fully automatic mode.
System Wiring Requirements
· Battery power (2 ga. SAE J1127. Type SGX). · Battery ground (2 ga. SAE J1127. Type SGX). · Logic power (switched via ignition). · Power brake signal (open=park brake disengaged, GND=park brake engaged). · 4-wire harness connecting Controller to Touch Panel. · Jacks status input – switched to GND Jacks not all up – switch closed
Jacks all up switch open.
Air and Auxiliary Features
(When Applicable) System has the option to control external Air and Auxiliary features. When enabled, the feature works according to the following logic:
· Air bag pressure is automatically lowered when starting the auto or manual sequence to maximize lift of jacks.
· An Auxiliary mode is activated when starting an auto retract sequence to fill airbags. · Auxiliary is active when jacks are all retracted and park brake is disengaged to fill airbags.
Rev: 10.21.24
Page 4
CCD-0001566
Air and Auxiliary Feature Configuration
For Diesel Units with Airbag Suspensions ONLY: · Feature is entered ONLY after zero mode programming. · At this point the Wait LED will blink for 20 seconds. You are now in Air/Auxiliary Feature Configuration mode.
To enable Air Auxiliary features, perform the following: 1. Press the Retract All switch 3 times. 2. User must do this within 20 seconds of entering this mode. To disable Air features, perform the following: 1. Do nothing.
2. After 20 seconds, module will exit mode with features disabled.
Miscellaneous
· The system will automatically shut down after 4 minutes of no operation. · Auto leveling cycle cannot be started until all jacks are fully retracted. Make sure jacks are retracted
before attempting to auto level. (Unit will perform full retract automatically if jacks are not down on the request of an auto cycle.) · System will refuse any operation when a low voltage condition is present. · System will automatically alarm and retract if park brake is disengaged and jacks are not retracted with any change in sensor readings. In alarm mode, the only available feature is to retract all jacks. · Please note the Wait LED shows the status of Air/Auxiliary features. The LEDs blink differently when in special controller modes (error, alarm and configuration). Learning how to recognize these modes is important. Excess slope LED blinks whenever the Y axis (vehicle length) is over 50 degrees from programmed level point.

Selecting a Site
When the coach is parked on an excessive slope, the leveling requirements may exceed the jack lift stroke capability. If the coach is parked on an excessive slope, the coach should be moved to a more level surface before the leveling system is deployed.
Level Zero Point Calibration
Before the auto leveling features are available, the Level Zero Point must be set. This is the point to which the system will return when an auto leveling cycle is initiated. To set the Zero Point (controller module must be fully secured in production-intent location), first run a manual leveling sequence to get the vehicle to the desired level point. Then activate the Level Zero Point configuration mode. This mode is enabled by performing the following sequence. 1. Turn the Touch Pad OFF. 2. Turn the Touch Pad ON and perform the following:
A. Press the Front button 5 times. B. Press the Rear button 5 times.
NOTE: At this point all LED outputs will blink. This indicates the system is in the IDLE mode ready to set Zero Point.
3. Press the Retract All button 3 times.
NOTE: All LEDs will go out except the WAIT light. The WAIT light will blink continuously for approximately 20 seconds while the Level Zero Point is being programmed into the controller.
NOTE: For Diesel Units with Automatic Airbag Suspensions ONLY: – Press the Retract All button 3 more times to program the auto dump/auto fill feature for the airbags.
4. The WAIT light will then go off and the LCI logo in the middle will illuminate, indicating a successful programming of the Zero Point configuration.

NOTE: Refer to Fig. 8 for questions regarding location and functions of the Ultra Level Leveling System.
NOTE: Coach must be running and parking brake must be engaged for Ultra Level Leveling System to operate.
1. Push ON/OFF button on Control Panel. The system is now operational and the electronic level lights will become active.
2. Check to see that the Control Pad ENGAGE PARK BRAKE light is not flashing. 3. Push the AUTO button to begin the automatic leveling cycle.
NOTE: After starting the automatic leveling cycle it is very important that you do not move around in the coach until the unit is level and the green LCI logo light illuminates in the center of the touch pad. Failure to remain still during the leveling cycle could have an affect on the performance of the leveling system.
4. If further adjustments are necessary, refer to the Manual Leveling Procedures section below.
Lifting all wheels off the ground may result in death or serious personal injury. 5. Push power button to turn off the system.
Manual Leveling Procedures
NOTE: When leveling your coach, the coach should be leveled from front to rear first (Step 2-4). When the coach is level from front to rear, then level the coach from left to right (Step 5).
NOTE: Coach must be running for Ultra Level Leveling System to operate. 1. Push ON/OFF button on control panel. The system is now operational and the ON/OFF light will be lit. 2. Push and hold MAN button for 5 seconds. 3. Push FRONT button until jacks contact the ground and lift the front of the coach 1-2 inches. 4. Push REAR button until jacks contact the ground and lift rear of coach. Keep button depressed until
bubble is centered. 5. Push LEFT or RIGHT button; if bubble is towards left of coach, push RIGHT button; if bubble is towards
right of coach push LEFT button. Keep button depressed until bubble is centered in vial.
NOTE: The right and left jacks are used to level the coach side to side. Pushing the LEFT button on the control panel will extend both left jacks. Pushing the RIGHT button on the control panel will extend both right jacks. Jacks always work in pairs, both front jacks; both right side jacks, etc.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 if needed. 7. Turn power off to leveling system by pushing ON/OFF button. 8. Visually inspect all jacks to ensure all shoes are touching the ground. Should one of the rear jack shoes
not be touching the ground, press the corresponding LEFT or RIGHT rear jack buttons to lower the corresponding jack to the ground.
Lifting all wheels off the ground may result in death or serious personal injury.

Jack Retract Procedures
1. Energize the system by pushing ON/OFF button on control panel. The ON/OFF light will be lit. 2. Push the RETRACT ALL JACKS button. All the jacks will start to retract and return to the full retract
position. When all jacks return to full retract position the JACKS DOWN light will go out.
NOTE: If you wish to stop the jacks from retracting, turn the system off and back on again by pushing the ON/OFF button twice. Follow steps 1-5 (Manual Leveling Procedures) to re-level the coach.
3. When the JACKS DOWN light goes out, push the ON/OFF button on the Control Panel to de-energize the system. After a brief visual inspection around the coach to verify the jacks are fully retracted, you may proceed to travel.
NOTE: When in the MANUAL mode, if the RETRACT button is pushed the jacks will only retract as long as the RETRACT button is depressed. In AUTOMATIC mode, the RETRACT button need only be pressed once and released for the jacks to fully retract.
Troubleshooting
Automatic Safety Shutoff
If the control panel is left on and inactive for four minutes it will shut off automatically. To reset the system the coach ignition must be turned off, then back on, and the ON/OFF button must again be pushed.
Drive Away Protection System
If the ignition is in the “RUN” position, jacks are down, and the operator releases the parking brake, all indicator lights will flash and the alarm beeper will activate. The system will then automatically retract the jacks until the jacks are fully retracted or the operator resets the parking brake. The power unit will also operate to keep the jacks retracted in the event the leveling system loses pressure as the coach is being driven.
Error Mode
If any problem is detected with the jacks, the system will enter Error Mode. Error mode may be recognized by the blinking of Left, Center LCI and Right LEDs.
The following errors are detected by this system: · Jack over current/short circuit. · Jack under current/ open circuit. · Jack extending too long (ground not detected after 2 min.). · Jack retracting too long (fully retracted not detected after 2 min.). · Out of stroke detection during auto cycle (if enabled). The user must respond by pressing On/Off switch, which resets operation. All normal features are disabled in Error Mode. If panel loses communication with the controller for more than 5 seconds, the panel will blink the Jacks Down, Park Brake and ON/OFF (if included) LEDs.
Rev: 10.21.24

Manual Override – Jacks
In the event that the jacks will not extend or retract, the valves can be manually overridden by using a 5/32″ Allen wrench (Pre-2006 model year, see update below) to turn the manual override clockwise on the valve (See Fig. 12). The leveling jacks can then be extended or retracted. Remember to turn the manual override completely counterclockwise (See Fig. 13) until it will no longer turn, to close the valve after the jacks have been completely extended or retracted.
Fig. 12
Fig. 13
Clockwise for manual override
Counter-clockwise for normal operation
Manual Override – Power System
The Ultra Level Leveling System can be run with auxiliary power devices like electric drills, ratchet wrenches or cordless screwdrivers. In the event of electrical or system failure, this manual method of extending and retracting the jacks can be used. A standard handheld drill is all that is required. See the instructions below.
1. Remove plastic cap (Fig 14).
2. Disconnect power cables on the motor.
3. Using a 1/2″ socket, insert into auxiliary drive device, i.e. cordless or power drill. Insert socket onto coupler found under plastic cap (Fig. 15).

“Jacks Down” Alarm
The Ultra Level Leveling System is designed to sound an alarm and illuminate the control panel in the event of two (2) possible scenarios:
A. A “RETRACT” hose leaks.
B. The pressure holding the jacks in the retracted position falls to approximately 1500 psi to sound the alarm.
If the alarm sounds and the control panel illuminates and flashes while driving the vehicle:
1. Immediately find an area to safely pull the vehicle off of the roadway.
2. Set the PARKING BRAKE.
3. Inspect all jacks hoses and check valve for leaks.
If no leaks are observed;
1. Turn control panel “ON.”
2. Push “RETRACT ALL JACKS” button.
3. Wait until “JACKS DOWN” light and alarm are off.
4. Inspect jacks. If jacks are retracted and no leaks are observed, vehicle can be driven.
If system is leaking or alarm does not subside after applying the above procedure, disconnect wires from pressure switch and proceed immediately to a service center. For prolonged travel to the service center, be sure to stop and check the disposition of the leveling jacks periodically to make sure they are not extending.
User Alarm Mode
If the alarm system detects that the park brake has been disengaged while at least one jack is not fully retracted and the sensor value changes in any axis more than a predefined amount, the panel will signal this error to the user.
When in alarm mode, all LEDs will flash and the buzzer will beep. The status LEDs will show the system status.
The system performs an automatic retract.
No other features are available in this mode.
Low Voltage Signal
If LOW VOLTAGE light is on solid, it is an indication of a charging system problem. Turn ignition OFF and then back ON to reset system. If LOW VOLTAGE light persists, test battery under load at battery and at the motor solenoid on the pump unit. Check all power and ground connections at the battery, alternator and chassis.
Fluid Recommendation
ATF with Dexron III® or Mercon 5® or a blend of both is recommended by Lippert. Type “A” Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is utilized and approved.
Hydraulic system operation in climates at or below 40 degrees F (4 degrees C) may result in the following: · Slow operation during extension/retraction · Incomplete retraction of jacks during Auto Retract procedure
NOTE: A visual inspection of the jacks in the retract position is recommended after completing Auto Retract.
For a list of approved fluid specifications, scan this QR Code or go to: TI-188 – Hydraulic Operation Fluid Recommendation.
Rev: 10.21.24
Page 14
CCD-0001566
Preventative Maintenance Procedures
1. Change fluid in RESERVOIR ONLY when contaminated. A. Check fluid only when jacks are fully retracted. B. Always fill the reservoir with the jacks in the fully retracted position. Filling reservoir when jacks are extended will cause reservoir to overflow into its compartment when jacks are retracted. C. When checking fluid level, fluid should be within 1/4″ of fill spout lip.
2. Check the fluid level every month. 3. Inspect and clean all Pump Unit electrical connections every 12 months. If corrosion is evident, spray
unit with WD-40 or equivalent. 4. Remove dirt and road debris from jacks as needed.
Your coach should be supported at both front and rear axles with jack stands before working underneath. Failure to do so may result in death or personal injury.
5. If jacks are down for extended periods, it is recommended to spray exposed leveling jack rods with a silicone lubricant every three months for protection. If your coach is located in a salty environment, it is recommended to spray the rods every 4 to 6 weeks.
Latched Out Warning
LATCHED ERROR mode is “Wait”, “Jacks Down”, “Park Brake”, “Excess Slope” and “Low Voltage” lights flashing. 1. Battery voltage below 10.0V DC. 2. Retract time over 67 seconds in auto retract. 3. This is the only LATCHED ERROR mode. To RESET, push all 4 diamond-shaped jack buttons at the same time (Fig. 16).

Introduction
The four-point three-valve hydraulic leveling system is a hydraulic system which includes four points of contact utilizing either steel or aluminum jacks, and a three-valve manifold system. A 12V DC electric motor drives a hydraulic pump that moves fluid through a system of hoses, fittings and jacks, to level and stabilize the coach. Mechanical portions of the hydraulic leveling system are replaceable. Contact Lippert to obtain replacement parts.
The hydraulic leveling system is primed and tested at the factory. However, the system is shipped dry to avoid hazardous material restrictions.

Selecting A Site
When the coach is parked on an excessive slope, the leveling requirements may exceed the jack lift stroke capability. If the coach is parked on an excessive slope, the coach should be moved to a more level surface before the leveling system is deployed. “EXCESS ANGLE” will appear on the LCD screen if the coach is 3.5 degrees out of level front-to-rear or side-to-side.
While utilizing leveling blocks and jack pads, all coach wheels MUSt not leave the ground during leveling. Lifting all the wheels off the ground creates a condition where severe property damage,
serious personal injury or possible death may occur.
Automatic Leveling Descriptive Logic
Grounding: The following steps describe the process of how the auto-leveling sequence extends the jacks to the ground:
1. Depending on which end of the coach is lowest to the ground, the level sensor in the controller will activate the jacks — the lowest end first, either front or rear. A. If the rear of the coach is the lowest end, ground the lowest rear jack first. B. If the front end is the lowest end, ground the front jack closest to the power unit.
2. Ground the lowest remaining front or rear end jack. 3. Lift lowest end jacks together until level. 4. The leveling system will then ground remaining end jacks.
A. If the rear of the coach is the remaining end, ground lowest jack first. B. If the front of the coach is the remaining end, ground the front jack closest to the power unit. 5. Ground the remaining front or rear remaining end jack. 6. Lift remaining end jacks together until level. Leveling: The following steps describe the process of how the auto-leveling sequence levels the coach once the jacks have been grounded. This process may repeat several times until level.
1. Front-to-rear 2. Side-to-side 3. Individually 4. Minor adjustments to confirm grounding
Automatic Leveling Procedure
Note: Coach requires 12.75V DC to commence auto-leveling function.
Note: Refer to Component Description listing in the System Information section for questions regarding component locations and functions of the hydraulic leveling system.
Note: The engine MUST be running and the parking brake MUST be engaged for the hydraulic leveling system to operate.
Note: Pressing any button during an automatic sequence will stop the sequence and a “Function Aborted” error code will occur. Press ENTER to clear the code and then continue the operation or start a new function.
1. Press Power Button to turn system on (Fig. 1K). The green light will illuminate. 2. Press Auto Level (Fig. 1F). LCD Screen will display “Remain Still.” 3. The coach will level automatically and indicate “Auto Level – Success” in the LCD display (Fig. 1E).
Note: Display will then read “Level – Jacks: Down.” Do not press any buttons until this message appears or a “Function Aborted” error will be displayed.
4. Visually inspect all jacks to make sure all footpads are touching the ground. If either of the rear jack footpads is not touching the ground, press LEFT or RIGHT (Fig. 1H or Fig. 1I) to lower the non-compliant jack to the ground.

Make sure all jacks are fully retracted before travel.
Manual Override of The Power System and Jacks
In the event that the jacks do not retract, the cartridge valves can be manually overridden.
Note: Cartridge valves should be opened prior to operating with any auxiliary power device. The hydraulic leveling system can be operated in conjunction with auxiliary power devices, like cordless or power drills. In the event of electrical or system failure, the manual method of retracting the jacks can be used. A standard hand-held drill is all that is required.
Do not over-tighten override set screws as this can damage the valves.
1. Use a 5/32″ hex key to turn the manual override clockwise (Fig. 2) on each of the three cartridge valves
to open the valves. 2. Disconnect or shield power cables on the motor. 3. Remove plastic cap (Fig. 3A) from motor coupler. 4. Unplug the wire harness from the directional valve. See Wiring Diagram.

Maintenance
Fluid Recommendation
ATF with Dexron III® or Mercon 5® or a blend of both is recommended by Lippert. Type “A” Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is utilized and approved. Hydraulic system operation in climates at or below 40 degrees F (4 degrees C) may result in the following: · Slow operation during extension/retraction · Incomplete retraction of jacks during Auto Retract procedure
Note: A visual inspection of the jacks in the retract position is recommended after completing Auto Retract.
For A List of Approved Fluid Specifications, Scan This QR Code Or Go To: TI-188 – Hydraulic Operation Fluid Recommendation.
Purging the Hydraulic System
the coach should be supported at both front and rear axles with jack stands before working underneath. Failure to do so may result in death, serious personal injury or severe product or
property damage.
Note: Make sure jacks are fully retracted prior to filling reservoir to prevent over-filling
1. Zip-tie any loose wiring or hydraulic lines.
Note: The basic purge procedure to bleed the Lippert Hydraulic Systems can be performed without the use of any tools. The hydraulic system will purge the air from the hydraulic lines and cylinders by simply running the pump.
Note: It is recommended to perform a minimum of three complete cycles (steps 2-7) to ensure both proper function and adequate fluid level of the system.
2. Start with all hydraulic components in the fully retracted position, meaning all jacks and slide-outs are brought back inside the coach as if the coach were ready for travel.
3. Find the hydraulic pump location and note the amount of fluid currently in the reservoir. The fluid level
should be about 1/4″ from the top of the reservoir and no more than 1/2″ from the top.
Note: When checking the fluid level after ensuring all hydraulic components are retracted, note if there are any bubbles, froth or foam on top of the fluid. This is an indication that air has been pushed back to the reservoir when the hydraulic components were retracted in the last cycle. Wait 15-20 minutes for the foam to dissipate before beginning the purge process.
4. If there is no froth or foam in the reservoir and the fluid is not within 1/2″ of the top, fill the reservoir to
within the level described in step 3. 5. With the fluid level full and no foam in the reservoir, begin cycling the hydraulic system. 6. Extend jacks fully, taking the coach off the tires. If the coach has hydraulic slide-outs, extend all slide-
outs. Once all jacks and slide-outs are extended, immediately retract all slide-outs and then jacks. 7. Check the reservoir foam. If foam is present, see NOTE following step 3 and then repeat steps 4-6. Repeat
these steps until no foam is present in the reservoir. If no foam is present, the system is purged of air.
Preventative Maintenance
1. Check hydraulic fluid in reservoir every 12 months. If fluid is a clear, red color, do not change. If fluid is milky, pink and murky, and not clear red in color, drain reservoir and add new fluid. Hydraulic fluid in reservoir should be changed a minimum of every five years.
Rev: 11.12.24
Page 12
CCD-0002366
Note: Check the hydraulic fluid only when all the jacks are fully retracted.
Note: When checking the hydraulic fluid level, fill reservoir to within 1/4″ to 1/2″ of fill spout.
2. Inspect and clean all power unit electrical connections every 12 months. If corrosion is evident, spray connections with electrical contact cleaner.
3. Remove dirt and road debris from jacks as needed. 4. If jacks are extended for long periods of time, it is recommended to spray exposed jack rods with a dry
silicone lubricant every three months for protection. If the coach is located in a salty environment, it is recommended to spray the rods every four to six weeks.

Maintenance
1. Remove dirt and road debris from leveling jacks and landing gear and stabilizer struts (if equipped) as needed.
2. If jacks are down for extended periods, it is recommended to spray exposed jack tubes with a spray lubricant every three months for protection. If the trailer is located in a salty air environment, it is recommended to spray the jack tubes every four to six weeks.
3. Inspect and clean all of the power and electrical connections prior to the first use of the trailer at the start of the traveling season and prior to storing the trailer. If corrosion is evident, clean all corrosion with a wire brush, then apply dielectric grease to the connections.
4. Make sure to turn the manual override set screw on the valve back to the counterclockwise position after extending or retracting the landing gear or leveling jacks.
Hydraulic Fluid
1. Each month, check that the fluid level is within 1/4″ of the reservoir fill spout lip while leveling jacks and
slide-outs are fully retracted.
Note: Always fill the reservoir with the leveling jacks and slide-outs fully retracted. Filling the reservoir when leveling jacks and slide-outs are extended will cause the reservoir to overflow into its compartment when the leveling jacks and slide-outs are retracted.
2. Check the color of the hydraulic fluid in the reservoir every 12 months. If fluid is a clear, red color, do not change. If fluid is milky, pink and murky and not clear red in color, drain reservoir and add new fluid. Hydraulic fluid in reservoir should be changed a minimum of every five years.
Rev: 11.20.24
Page 10
CCD-0002638
Fluid Recommendation
ATF with Dexron III® or Mercon 5® or a blend of both is recommended by Lippert. Type “A” Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is utilized and approved. Hydraulic system operation in climates at or below 40 degrees F (4 degrees C) may result in the following: · Slow operation during extension/retraction · Incomplete retraction of jacks during Auto Retract procedure Note: A visual inspection of the jacks in the retract position is recommended after completing Auto Retract. For a list of approved fluid specifications, scan this QR Code or go to: TI-188 – Hydraulic Operation Fluid Recommendation.
Purging Procedure
Do not attempt to purge this system without the front end of the trailer safely supported. Purging the system without properly supporting the trailer could result in death or serious injury.
Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPe) for the procedure being performed.
Refer to TI-118, Basic Purge Procedure for Hydraulic Pumps To obtain this Technical Information sheet online, go to https://support.lci1.com/towable-br-level-up-support-towable-level-up-br-touch-pad. Then click on the Technical Information Sheets tab. Look for TI-118: Basic Purge Procedure for Hydraulic Pumps within the listing.
1. Purging of the hydraulic system should be performed with the trailer coupled to the tow vehicle, a kingpin stand under the pin box or jack stands under the front portion of the frame.
2. Start with all hydraulic components in the fully retracted position, meaning all jacks, landing gear, stabilizers and slide-outs brought back inside the trailer as if it were ready to travel.
3. Find the hydraulic pump location and note the amount of fluid currently in the reservoir. The fluid level
should be about 1/4″ from the top of the reservoir and no more than 1/2″ from the top.
Note: When checking the fluid level after ensuring all hydraulic components are retracted, note if there are any bubbles, froth or foam on top of the fluid. This is an indication that air has been pushed back to the reservoir when the hydraulic components were retracted in the last cycle. Wait 15-20 minutes for the foam to dissipate before beginning the purge process.
4. If there is no froth or foam in the reservoir and the fluid is not within 1/2″ of the top, fill the reservoir to
within the level described in step 3. 5. With the fluid level full and no foam in the reservoir, begin cycling the hydraulic system:
A. Extend hydraulic landing gear until footpads contact the ground. B. Extend hydraulic leveling jacks to touch the ground. C. Extend any slide-outs, if applicable. D. Retract any slide-outs, if applicable. e. Retract hydraulic leveling jacks. F. Retract hydraulic landing gear. 6. Check the reservoir for foam. If foam is present, see Note above and repeat steps 4 and 5. 7. Repeat these steps until no foam is present in the reservoir. If no foam is present, the system is purged of air.

Fluid Recommendation
The Lippert Electronic Leveling System is pre-filled, primed and ready to operate direct from the manufacturer. Type “A” Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is utilized and will work. ATF with Dexron III® or Mercon 5® or a blend of both is recommended by Lippert. In colder temperatures (less than 10° F) the jacks may extend and retract slowly due to the fluid’s molecular nature. For cold weather operation, fluid specially formulated for low temperatures may be desirable. For a list of approved fluid specifications, see TI-188.
Component Description
The Lippert Electronic Leveling System consists of the following major components: · Lippert jacks are rated at a lifting capacity appropriate for your coach. Each jack has a 9″ diameter (63.5
Square inch) shoe on a ball swivel for maximum surface contact on all surfaces. (12″ Dia. – 113 Sq. In. shoe also available). · Each jack is powered from a central 12V DC (Fig.1) motor/pump assembly, which also includes the hydraulic oil reservoir tank, control valve manifold, and solenoid valves. · The Lippert Electronic Leveling System is controlled electronically from the driver’s seat of the coach. The touchpad is mounted in the dash. The system can be operated in a manual mode or a fully automatic mode.

Prior to operation
The leveling system shall only be operated under the following conditions: 1. The coach is parked on a reasonably level surface, engine running. 2. The coach “parking brake” is engaged. 3. All jack landing locations are cleared of debris and obstructions. 4. The coach transmission should be in the park position. 5. Locations should also be free of depressions.
Note: When parking the coach on extremely soft surfaces, utilize load distribution pads under each jack. 6. People and pets should be clear of coach while operating leveling system. 7. Be sure to keep hands and other body parts clear of fluid leaks. Oil leaks in the Lippert Leveling System
may be under high pressure and can cause serious skin penetrating injuries. 8. Never lift the coach completely off the ground. Lifting the coach so the wheels are not touching
ground will create an unstable and unsafe condition.
operation
Selecting a Site
When the coach is parked on an excessive slope, the leveling requirements may exceed the jack lift stroke capability. If the coach is parked on an excessive slope, the coach should be moved to a more level surface before the leveling system is deployed.
· Make sure jacks are retracted before attempting to auto level. (The System will perform full retract automatically if jacks are not down on the request of an auto cycle).
· System will refuse any operation when a low voltage condition is present. · System will automatically alarm and retract if park brake is disengaged and jacks are not retracted
with any change in sensor readings. When in alarm mode, the only available feature is to retract all jacks.
· The LEDs blink differently when in special controller modes (error, alarm and configuration). Learning how to recognize these modes is important.
· Excess slope LED blinks whenever the Y axis (vehicle length) is over 5 degrees from programmed level point.

If any problem is detected with the jacks, the system will enter Error Mode. Error mode may be recognized by the blinking of Left, Center LCI and Right LEDs. The following errors are detected by this system:
· Jack over current/short circuit.
· Jack under current/ open circuit.
· Jack extending too long (ground not detected after 2 minutes).
· Jack retracting too long (fully retracted not detected after 2 minutes).
· Out of stroke detection during auto cycle (if enabled).
The user must respond by pressing On/Off switch, which resets operation. All normal features are disabled in Error Mode. If panel loses communication with the controller for more than 5 seconds, the panel will blink the Jacks Down, Park Brake and ON/OFF (if included) LEDs.
Level Zero Point Calibration
The Zero Point is the programmed point that the coach will return to each time the Auto Level feature is used. The Zero Point must be programmed prior to using the Auto Level feature to ensure the proper operation of the system. To set the zero point, the control module must be fully secured in the production intent location. Activate the Level Zero point configuration mode by following the steps below:
1. Turn system on by pressing the “ON/OFF” (Fig. 3A). The “ON/OFF” indicator light (Fig. 3E) will illuminate.
2. Press the “MAN” (Fig. 3B) and hold for 2-3 seconds. The indicator light below the “MAN” button will then illuminate. This will put the system into “MANUAL” mode.
3. Level the coach in “MANUAL” mode by using a carpenter’s level on the floor. Level front to rear and then left to right. A. Push the “FRONT” (Fig. 3C) button until both front jacks contact the ground and lift the front of the coach 1-2 inches. B. Push “REAR” (Fig. 3H) button until both rear jacks contact the ground and lift rear of coach. Keep button depressed until the carpenter’s level bubble is centered. C. Push “LEFT” (Fig. 3F) and “RIGHT” (Fig. 3I) buttons as needed to raise the left and right sides of the coach respectively until level bubble is centered.
4. Turn Touch Pad “OFF” (Fig. 3A) to exit “MANUAL” mode; then turn it on again. 5. Now that the coach is leveled, press “FRONT” (Fig. 3C) 5 times. 6. Press “REAR” (Fig. 3H) 5 times. At this time all lights on the touch pad will flash with the exception of
the ON/OFF indicator (Fig. 3E), it will remain solidly lit. 7. The touch pad is now in zero mode. 8. With the coach in level condition, simultaneously press the “RETRACT ALL JACKS” (Fig. 3D) button and
the “AUTO” (Fig. 3J) button to store this as the Zero Level Point reference. 9. The “WAIT” light (Fig. 3K) will flash for approximately 5 seconds. After this, the control will emit an
audible beep and revert back to normal operation mode. Zero Point calibration is now complete.
Note: You may also enter zero mode per above at anytime the system is in IDLE mode. The user then has control to extend any pair of jacks while in zero mode in order to position the vehicle properly prior to setting the zero point.

Manual Override – Jacks
In the event that the jacks will not extend or retract, the valves can be manually overridden by using a 5/32″ or 5/64″ hex wrench to turn the manual override clockwise on the valve. (Fig. 4). The leveling jacks can then be extended or retracted. Remember to turn the manual override completely counterclockwise (Fig. 5) until it will no longer turn, to close the valve after the jacks have been completely extended or retracted.

Clockwise for manual override
Counter-clockwise for normal operation
Manual Override – Power System
The Lippert Electronic Leveling System can be run with auxiliary power devices like electric drills, ratchet wrenches or cordless screwdrivers. In the event of electrical or system failure, this manual method of extending and retracting the jacks can be used. A standard handheld drill is all that is required. 1. Remove plastic cap (Fig. 6A). 2. Disconnect power cables on the motor. 3. Using a 1/2″ socket, insert into auxiliary drive device, i.e. cordless or power drill. Insert socket onto
coupler found under plastic cap (Fig. 7A). 4. Run drill in reverse or counterclockwise to retract jacks.

“Jacks Down” Alarm
The Lippert Electronic Leveling System is designed to sound an alarm and illuminate the control panel in the event of two (2) possible scenarios:
A. A “RETRACT” hose leaks. B. The pressure holding the jacks in the retracted position falls to approximately 1500 psi to sound
the alarm. If the alarm sounds and the touchpad illuminates and flash while driving the vehicle: 1. Immediately find an area to safely pull the vehicle off of the roadway. 2. Set the PARKING BRAKE. 3. Inspect all jacks hoses and check valve for leaks. If no leaks are observed; 1. Turn touchpad “ON.” 2. Push “RETRACT ALL JACKS” button. 3. Wait until “JACKS DOWN” light and alarm are off. 4. Inspect jacks. If jacks are retracted and no leaks are observed, vehicle can be driven. If system is leaking or alarm does not subside after applying the above procedure, disconnect wires from pressure switch and proceed immediately to a service center. For prolonged travel to the service center, be sure to stop and check the disposition of the leveling jacks periodically to make sure they are not extending.
User Alarm Mode
If the alarm system detects that the park brake has been disengaged while at least one jack is not fully retracted and the sensor value changes in any axis more than a predefined amount, the panel will signal this error to the user. When in alarm mode, all LEDs will flash and the buzzer will beep. The status LEDs will show the system status. The system performs an automatic retract. No other features are available in this mode.
Low Voltage Signal
If LOW VOLTAGE light is on solid, it is an indication of a charging system problem. Turn ignition OFF and then back ON to reset system. If LOW VOLTAGE light persists, test battery under load at battery and at the motor solenoid on the pump unit. Check all power and ground connections at the battery, alternator and chassis.

Preventative Maintenance Procedures
1. Change fluid in RESERVOIR ONLY when contaminated. A. Check fluid only when jacks are fully retracted. B. Always fill the reservoir with the jacks in the fully retracted position. Filling reservoir when jacks are extended will cause reservoir to overflow into its compartment when jacks are retracted.
C. When checking fluid level, fluid should be within 1/4″ of fill spout lip.
2. Check the fluid level every month. 3. Inspect and clean all Pump Unit electrical connections every 12 months. If corrosion is evident, spray
unit with WD-40 or equivalent. 4. Remove dirt and road debris from jacks as needed. 5. If jacks are down for extended periods, it is recommended to spray exposed leveling jack rods with a
silicone lubricant every three months for protection. If your coach is located in a salty environment, it is recommended to spray the rods every 4 to 6 weeks.
Latched Out Warning
Your coach should be supported at both front and rear axles with jack stands before working underneath. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or death.
LATCHED ERROR mode is “Wait”, “Jacks Down”, “Park Brake”, “Excess Slope” and “Low Voltage” lights flashing. 1. Battery voltage below 10.0V DC. 2. Retract time over 67 seconds in auto retract. 3. This is the only LATCHED ERROR mode. 4. To RESET, push all 4 diamond-shaped jack buttons at the same time (Fig. 8A).
