Yeah, none of those are the right booklet, I've already researched them all.

Seems strange they'd have all those Op manuals listed, but not have mine.

Look through these for the jacks.

HWH manual list

The Bunny is a Travel indicator you push to put the suspension in travel mode. This is a Winne ONLY system. When it is lit you are safe to go. When you search HWH's website, sometimes you MUST search the OEM specific part. Doug

YES! Doug, I owe you a prize. The 2nd link has nothing I can use, but the first link is my system. Not the same ML number, but it's got everything I'm looking for on my system, including the handles on the hydraulic valves.

Thanks!

But...to reiterate my earlier question...when I push the bunny, what's supposed to happen? Will it be obvious?

BTW, The booklet I have doesn't say anything about any bunny related 'light'. So, I don't know what this means, "When it is lit you are safe to go.". When what is lit?

Push the Bunny after you get the light showing that the leveling jacks have fully retracted (all jacks red lights go off). Pushing the Bunny inflates all the air bags to proper ride height.

Sorry, it does not light up. The 2nd link shows ALL the Winne HWH operator manuals. I was not sure which specific system you had. There are a few 310 manuals on that 2nd link. All the manual says is push the Bunny and the RV will get to travel height. I guess that means it makes sure the Air Bag solenoids are closed and the Air suspension raises to travel height. Since I rarely work on Winne/Itasca, that Bunny is a Winne ONLY touchpad. Doug

"The suspension will stay in the dump mode until the park
brake is released or the "TRAVEL" button is pushed, if the
ignition is in the "ON" or "ACC" position".

In this case the Bunny is the Travel button.

X2. In normal operation, after jacks are retracted, the air bags don't inflate until you release the parking brake. But if you have the jacks retracted and air pressure is built up, and you're ready to go, push the Bunny (Travel button) and the suspension will inflate. Your Rear air pressure will drop while this is happening. When the suspension is inflated, the Rear air pressure comes back up. That's when I know the coach is ready to travel, so I release the parking brake and I'm on my way. Whoops -- make sure everything else is ready to go -- you're unplugged from external electric and water, everything is stowed, etc.

BTW, I use the HWH manual ML20013 for my system; it's probably the same as yours.

Thanks, everyone. I'm not sure my air bags are inflating in the way it's been mentioned by you guys. I can't tell if anything is happening as far as the suspension goes. I do wait for the air pressure to come up, but I've only driven the rig a couple times when all the jacks were fully retracted. However, I haven't noticed any difference in ride. It's nice and smooth with very little road bumping transmitted into the cockpit. So I don't think I have a problem, just curious what is suppose to happen when I push the bunny button. A noticeable drop? How about when I'm leaving a RV park, will I sense the rig lifting?

I have a 2002 Itasca Horizon, a close cousin to yours.

I press the jackrabbit switch once the jacks have retracted and the Low Air warning has gone off. If the pressure is high enough you will see one gauge drop (mine is the front gauge) and the suspension will start to fill and the coach will start to rise. The other gauge will not keep increasing until they are equal then they will both rise to max.

If you press early, just after the warning buzzer stops, or just after the jacks are retracted you may not see any change and both air tanks will fill at the same time. It will seem slower as the bags fill.

If the jack rabbit switch is NOT pressed, the air suspension will NOT fill until you put the transmission into gear. Then you will see one gauge drop then rise until the suspension has come up.

Also make sure you don't turn the control panel off before hitting the bunny. On occasion I have found that the bags did not fill, which is why now I wait until the air pressure is approaching 80 psi or so. Then when I see the pressure falling I know that the bags are inflating.
