I can remember looking at a HJ at a TC show once - the salesman showed us a pin-lever that allows the jack to release directly to the floor, "So, you don't have to spend the time lowering it" was his smiling statement. Correct, a time-saver ... unless it fails, like here, then you have a dangerous situation.
Don't know if HJ still has that, but doubt it because it won't take many dropping down at highway speeds to get the engineer's attention.
Good idea to share that experience - and talking to HJ is a better idea.
You are describing the HJ 4600, still available on line. To be clear, mine do not have this feature, something that sounded like a poor idea to me when I purchased them. When my 4500 dropped to the floor I realized I got the feature at no extra charge.:)
