Good morning I have hwh jacks on a Freightliner Newmar. Generally retracting the jacks is part of our departure routine. The engine is running, airEd up, etc. But can you retract the jacks with...
We have a Newmar on a Spartan chassis and I retract the jacks before starting the engine and airing up. Actually do it on the accessory setting on the key since that doesn't activate the blaring alarm while it sits there for several minutes retracting the jacks.
I usually spend the few minutes waiting for the jacks to store outside double checking all of the compartment doors and making sure the toad is secure, having a last smoke, etc.
