Re-level 5er with lippert hydraulics
Our trailer needs to be re-leveled after sitting in our spot for 6 months. I have found a wealth of info on the system but nothing about re-leveling. Do the slides need to be in? Do I need to be in ma...

"Manually leveling does NOT create binding of any type." And you know this how? Or just what you think? If you raise just the right rear side, which would be the middle and rear levelers, and not the front, what happens to the right front side? Won't it no longer be supported as much by the leveler at that corner?
I believe the hydraulic cylinders are rated at 8-10,000 lbs. EACH. So it would seem pretty unlikely you'll overload 50-60,000 lbs. worth of hydraulic cylinders. And can't see how manual level would be any different, the pressure is always the same.
I can't personally say whether it will recycle when AutoLevel, but have heard that it doesn't. But cannot say for sure, I've not done it when level so can't say.
I know this because I have extensively had conversations with Melvin at Lippert on how the system works. The fronts adjust to what you do at the rear on each side. Have someone hit extend off door side rear you will see the off door front extend. The side levelers are tied together and balance them selves also.
The front drops when you hit auto level, you can't stop it. I guess all I can say that is how mine has worked in the past as I am not using auto again. So if you are slightly out of level after setting for a while go to manual mode and adjust to level it's that simple.
