Atwood Power Jack/Robofoot install

Just recieved my power jack and robofoot today. Is there any special tricks involved to install it? looks pretty basic to install.

Thanks
  • Install was super easy except the robofoot wont work, think my trailer is a tad to low for it to extend, doesnt straighten out before it hits the ground. If ya wanna buy it let me know lol. make ya a good price.
  • yep figured it was pretty basic but just wanted to check.

    Thanks
  • Mine was straight forward.

    block trailer up so weight is off jack
    remove old jack
    install new jack (may need to enlarge hole if new jack is larger diameter than old)
    run wire to positive battery connection
    zip tie loose wires
    test jack
    remove blocking so jack is supporting trailer
  • Don't know about the Robofoot but for the jack, just bolt it down and hook up the fused wire to the plus side of the battery. Make sure you scrape the paint off around one the bolt holes so the mounting bolt can make a good ground. The jack is grounded through its mounting bolts.
