what operates their solenoid valves
If there are no coils?
The solenoids are built by HWH. They build almost ALL their parts. The solenoids are electric(12 volt), but the "coil" is internal. Not a separate part like your Powergear system where you have the external coil that activates the solenoid. When a Powergear type solenoid fails, replacing the external slide over coil usually fixes the problem, no need to open the tappet that is on the pressure side. Like I stated, RVA/Powergear/Equalizer and LCI all use the external coil type valves. Doug- MrWizardModeratorwhat operates their solenoid valves

I bought new coils for the manifold valves, for my power gear levelers
Sorry if nothing there fits hwh
But hydraulic fittings are standard sizes
I measured the coils, and I found a cross reference in a online forum post that had an industry number
Using that info I found what I needed
Brand new coils for about $23 each
Instead of used valve and coil for $60+ on eBay
All I needed was to replace coils with broken terminals
I bought 'wired' coils with pigtails, no terminals to corrode and break
HWH does not use coils. Doug- MrWizardModeratorI bought new coils for the manifold valves, for my power gear levelers

summit hydraulics website
Summit hydraulics on Ebay
I went to this website and NONE of the Hydraulic offerings come close to HWH. The products may work on Powergear/RVA/Equalizer systems. Doug- JimExplorer

RAP2082 PRESSURE SWITCH
50 P.S.I. Doug
Thanks, Doug, I appreciate that, I will put that in my notes.
Mr. Wizard: I'd like to have a link to that on line hydraulic store you mentioned so I have it in my records. Could you provide that please? When you get the chance? Thanks. - RAP2082 PRESSURE SWITCH
50 P.S.I. Doug - MrWizardModeratorWhat is the function of the switch?
High pressure cut off
Low pressure alarm
Assuming your jacks are down and the slides out
How long are you staying in place
Remove the switch, goto the hardware store, get a plug the correct thread
Now you know the thread possibly 3/8 pipe thread
You can search industrial farm equipment hydraulics for a replacement switch
Most likely the place I bought my replacement coils from, has a switch Jim@HiTek wrote:
Thanks, I already have the correct document for my system...but it doesn't show any part numbers. My phone is broken and I can't call HWH atm. Hoping someone has the p/n in their records.
It is a waste of time calling HWH. Just Email them. You will get a faster response and if you include which model system you have with a pic of the part, will get a fast response. Doug
