How to Manually Raise/Lower Lippert Ground Control Leveling System on RV

Updated 12/27/2019 | Published 12/26/2019

Question:

We have a 2016 Columbus by Palomino 5th wheel with a 6 point electric leveling system. We are trying to re-home the system, but the middle jacks wont extend by pushing the left and right buttons at the same time so we were told we would have to do it manually. Can you explain how we go about doing that?

There are two ways you can manually override the jacks of the Lippert Ground Control kit part # LC358590 that you referenced. You can use a power drill or ratchet to operate them from the top of the leg assemblies or from the bottom. If you check out the picture I attached you can see exactly how this is done. From the top you'd just need to insert a 3/8 inch drive from a drill or ratchet to raise or lower but from the bottom you'd need to use a 5/16 inch socket.
