If you have the Atwood Powered A-Frame jack # AT81068, it will have an alignment tube opening that will be used to manually control the raising or lowering of your jack. You would place the manual override ratchet and socket, that is included with the jack, into the opening and crank the handle clockwise to raise the jack or counterclockwise to lower the jack.
If you have the Atwood Standard or Lightweight jack it will not have a opening for a manual override handle. You would need to remove the top cover by loosening the four screws. Then, remove the screws holding the motor to the mounting plate and lift motor off of jack. Turn hex drive nut with wrench or optional manual drive handle, part # 87891, to raise or lower the jack.
The 30 amp fuse is located in the power wire coming out of the bottom of the head of the jack.
