Hey Jacqueline! The Dexter Self-Contained Hydraulic Jack #DX72CR manual didn't have anything in it about a manual override, but in looking at the photos, the rubber plug on top of the cover should be where the manual override is located. Try…
The rule of thumb for estimating a tongue weight is 10-15 percent of trailer weight. A 4,600 pound trailer would have a tongue weight between 460 and 690 pounds. Somewhere between a 1,000 to 2,000 pound capacity jack would be fine. Having a jack that…

Trailer jacks are essential for stabilizing and maneuvering trailers with ease. Whether you're hauling livestock, equipment, or a camper, a sturdy jack ensures safe and efficient handling. Consider factors like weight capacity, ease of installation, and durability when choosing the right jack for your needs.
Choose a trailer jack with a weight capacity that exceeds your trailer's loaded weight. For example, if you're considering a 2,000 lb jack but find a 5,000 lb option for just a bit more, it's a no-brainer to go for the higher capacity for added safety and peace of mind.
Most trailer jacks are designed for straightforward installation, often requiring just a few bolts. Some models can be welded directly to the trailer for added stability. A typical install can take less than 5 minutes, making it a quick and easy upgrade.
Yes, many trailer jacks are versatile enough to handle various terrains like gravel and grass. Look for models with durable wheels and a strong swivel mechanism to ensure smooth operation across different surfaces.
Regular maintenance involves greasing the moving parts to ensure smooth operation. Some users suggest having a repair video for tasks like handle replacement. Keeping the jack clean and lubricated will extend its lifespan and performance.
Look for features like a locking wheel to keep it secure when not in use, or a magnetic handle for easy attachment. Some jacks offer flexible mounting options, allowing you to choose the best position for your trailer's frame.
