From the PowerGear troubleshooting document:
Sympton: Jack legs create popping sound
Corrective Action: Extend jack legs, clean rod, lubricate with light weight grease if equipped with grease fittings
or lubricate with silicone spray
Corrective Action: Due to changes in temperature, expanding and contracting of fluid will magnify the problem of
popping jacks, to help minimize this replace fluid with Mercon V fluid
I think I would extend the jack legs, clean the rods, grease the foot if it has a grease fitting (not all do) and also lubricate with silicone spray. Then if this did not improve it, I'd change the fluid to Mercon V.
Good luck.
