Measuring Frame and Adjusting Assembly Width
The Quick Drop Stabilizer system Double Leg Kit will come
in three (3) main parts: the two legs and the center piece.
The Quick Drop Stabilizer system can be adjusted to
accommodate the frame rails/overall width of the trailer.
The width of the entire assembly can be adjusted by
moving the stabilizers in-and-out of the center
piece (Fig. 2A).
1. Measure frame to determine the width of the trailer
(Fig. 3). Specically, measure from the outside of the frame
ange to the outside of the frame ange on the other side
(Fig. 4A).

NOTE: Most trailers will have J Wrap/trim preventing the
frame from being completely visible. The Quick Drop
Stabilizer MUST be attached to the frame.
B
Flange
Flange
2. Measure the ange on the frame (Fig. 4B) to determine
the center of the outside ange. Then take the
measurement and divide by 2. This is where the stabilizer
will be attached to the frame.
3. Use the overall width (outside ange to outside ange)
minus ½ the ange width of the right and left side to
determine the necessary length of the Quick Drop
Stabilizer system. Use this measurement when assembling
the stabilizers into the center piece. The Quick Drop
assembly needs to extend beyond the frame, but not past
the wheels.

Proper Stabilizer Position
Using Visual Gauge
It is important that the Quick Drop leg be positioned so
that the trailer weight is evenly distributed by the stabilizer.
The visual gauge (Fig. 30A) is referenced in the proceeding
instructions to determine that the Quick Drop leg has
sufficient angle to adequately stabilize the trailer.
As the Quick Drop Stabilizer is extending, monitor the
visual gauge as the outer arm drops and the inner arm
moves across the assembly body toward the hex coupler.
The arms will need to be open enough (Fig. 30B) for the
inner arm and Quick Drop leg to move past the visual
gauge.
NOTE: Figure 30B refers to the space that is open and
between the arms as the Quick Drop Stabilizer is in use.
FAILURE TO ACT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
FOLLOWING MAY RESULT IN DEATH, SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY OR SEVERE PRODUCT OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE. ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE
STABILIZER AREA IS CLEAR OF PETS, PEOPLE
AND OBJECTS BEFORE AND DURING OPERATION
OF THE SYSTEM. ALWAYS KEEP AWAY FROM THE
STABILIZER LEGS WHEN IN OPERATION.

Examples of Quick Drop Stabilizer Positioning
The following figures show examples of the Quick Drop
Stabilizer from optimal to inadequate stabilization.
Fig.31
Fig.32
BEST: Optimal Stabilization is achieved when the inner
arm and Quick Drop leg clear the visual gauge AND the
inner arm and assembly body are almost at a 90 degree
angle (Fig.31).
NOTE: Upon completion, the inner arm should not have
moved beyond a 90 degree angle; perpendicular to the
assembly body. Doing so may cause the mechanism to
bind and cause damage.
GOOD: Adequate Stabilization can be achieved with the
inner arm and assembly body greater than a 90 degree
angle, BUT the inner arm is clear of the
visual gauge (Fig. 32).
NOTE: The GOOD position (Fig. 32) is recommended for
preloading so that the stabilizer can be extended and finish
in the BEST position (Fig. 31) (90 degree angle).
BAD: Stabilization is inadequate when the inner arm
and Quick Drop leg ARE NOT clear of the visual gauge.
The angle of the inner arm and assembly body is too great
to assure that the trailer weight can be

Preparation
1. Be sure to park the trailer on solid, level ground.
2. Clear all stabilizer leg landing locations of debris and
obstructions. Locations should also be free of depressions.
3. When parking the trailer on extremely soft surfaces,
utilize load distribution pads under each stabilizer leg.
4. People and pets should be clear of trailer while
operating the stabilizers.
Extending Stabilizers
1. Disconnect the safety chain (Fig. 34A) from
the footpad (Fig. 34B).
NEVER LIFT THE TRAILER COMPLETELY OFF THE
GROUND. LIFTING THE TRAILER COMPLETELY OFF
THE GROUND CREATES AN UNSTABLE CONDITION
THAT COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND
PERSONAL INJURY.
2. Using a ¾” socket on a ratchet or cordless drill, turn the
hex coupler (Fig. 35A) clockwise to begin lowering the foot
pad towards the ground.
NOTE: Use of an impact drill is not recommended and will
cause damage to the mechanism.
3. After the footpad has extended to a point, it will be
necessary to pull the spring latch (Fig. 36A) and lower the
Quick Drop Leg (Fig. 36B) so that the foot pad (Fig. 36C) is
positioned as close to the ground as possible.

NOTE: It may take a few attempts of adjusting the Quick
Drop Leg and turning the hex coupler to achieve the
optimal stabilization (Fig. 38).
5. Repeat process for other stabilizer legs.
NOTE: Upon completion, the inner arm should not have
moved beyond a 90 degree angle; perpendicular to the
assembly body. Doing so may cause the mechanism to
bind and cause damage.
ONCE THE STABILIZER LEGS HAVE BEEN
EXTENDED, DO NOT USE THE TONGUE JACK ON
A TRAVEL TRAILER OR THE LANDING GEAR ON A
5TH WHEEL. DAMAGE TO THE STABILIZER LEGS
CAN OCCUR WHEN LIFTING OR LEVELING THE
TRAILER AFTER THE STABILIZER LEGS HAVE BEEN
EXTENDED. DOING SO WILL VOID THE WARRANTY
OF THE STABILIZERS.

Retracting Stabilizers
1. Using a ¾” socket on a ratchet or cordless drill, turn the
hex coupler (Fig. 37A) counterclockwise to begin raising the
foot pad o󰀨 the ground.
NOTE: Use of an impact drill is not recommended and will
cause damage to the mechanism.
QUICK RETRACTING STABILIZERS CAN PINCH, CUT,
SCRATCH OR INJURE FINGERS AND HANDS.
KEEP CLEAR AND USE CAUTION WHEN OPERATING
STABILIZERS TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY.
