- They probably came with one motor. However, the owner may have had to replace the system like we had to when we had a Cardinal 33LE because they quit working. We installed dual motors that operated independently. Like donn0128 said, look in the compartment to see how many motors you have!
- Open the front storage compartment bay and look. One motor together, two motors separate. 99% sure there is a single motor on the street side leg. They can be converted relatively inexpensively.
- If you have hydraulic front jacks they will work seperate of each other. On mine once the first jack has pressure against it the other jack will come down. It ends up both will do the lifting at the same time however.
- If you have just one switch to extend/retract then they both move together.
One motor & gear box on drive leg.....connected to driven leg (other side) via a cross tube.
If you have two switches to extend/retract then legs are independent and can be moved individually.
Two motors & gear boxes...one for each leg. Not connected viz a cross tube.
