  • How to use RV Levelers - Automatic and Manual This video is one we have wanted to do for a while. We show how we level our motorhome using automatic, manual and and with LevelmatePro. We also use RV SnapPads on our leveling pads. Setup at a campground has never been easier for us.

    Thanks for the videos!! We had major issues where we were online with Lippert Service and what they had us do ended up breaking a pin. Then, once we fixed the pin we tried to manually (the nut on the jacks) lower the jack and found the front right was binding. Ordered a new motor/gear box and reinstalled everything and all seems to be good now!! We like to sit a little nose down when running air conditioning so it runs off the front. In the process, we also ordered a new control pad since our Bounder is a 2007. It has been an ordeal and we are in our 70’s, so we really appreciated watching your videos!! Blessings on you.

    Hi Chuck and Cheryl. Liked the video although I don't have that brand of leveling system, but have thought about getting the snappads and levelmate pro. I bet you sell your house before me. We had to cancel our Branson, MO trip. We've had record breaking flooding here in Ft. Gibson, OK and the surrounding area. We are high enough to where we are not affected, but my daughter, son-in-law, and 4 year old grandson's home flooded and they have moved in with us. I'm just thankful we're able to do it. It's been over a week and they still haven't been able to get to their house. They probably lost pretty much everything. The donations businesses are providing for those affected have been amazing. Everyone is safe and that's the main thing.

      Hi Carl! We are so sorry for you guys and your family. We heard on the news about the terrible weather out your way, thankfully everyone in your family is alright. Possessions can be replaced, lives can't. Mother Nature can be cruel at times. We really hope everything get back to at least somewhat normal for all of you soon.
      We love the Level mate pro and the RV SnapPads. Cheryl was always the one who got out to guide me in and trying to find the levelest spot, then crawling under to put the blocks under the jack pads. Now she knows the levelest spot using the app and the SnapPads have eliminated the need for the blocks. Anything that make setup and breakdown easier is something we want. LOL

      Thanks, I appreciate that. We did stay in the Jayco a few days while the electricity was out. Sure glad it has a generator.

    Sometimes my low voltage light goes on I've checked my batteries I know they're good. Doesn't seem to affect the performance. And sometimes when I make a turn driving with the level system off all the lights are flashing and beep for a few seconds. I've checked the manual it says hydraulic oil level could be low. levels are good. Thanks again for your video

    • @GetGonewithUS
      @GetGonewithUS  Před 4 lety

      Thank you! Sorry to hear you are having problems with your system. How old are your batteries? We were getting the low voltage warnings too. We got a hold of the company and they told us that the batteries have to already have a strong charge in them before you can operate the levelers, even though the engine is running. After testing both of our batteries, we were told one of them was a tad bit on the weak side, so we changed them both out and have not had that problem since.

    I'm new to the RV'ing and this is by far the best Instruction vid on the levelers. I have one more question that I have been getting mixed answer from everyone I asked. Do you level with the slide in or out and do you reverse the exact process when retracting the leveler?

    • @GetGonewithUS
      @GetGonewithUS  Před 4 lety +4

      Thanks for your comment, we appreciate it. The slide or levelers first question is opening a can of worms. lol Some say it depend on if it is gas or diesel. Some manufacturers recommend slides first, then levelers. For us, our manual says levelers first, then slides. The reason being that if the rig isn't already level, the slides could possible bind going in or out. We follow what the manual said to do and that is the recommendation that we always give to that question. Hope that helps. 😀

    Great information on auto. & man. leveling vid. Sure you have many OJT tips & tricks. I fully understand the need for leveling our Greyhawk 26y. By your recommend using RV snap pads (awesome).. I practice allot with Auto & Man. Trying to develop optional "self-only" methods to overcome ground issues that are unexpected and unforgiving. My most puzzling issue is when trying to get RV level and my tires go off ground and cause jacks to max out extension. I started using bubble level, then carpenters level, now have a electronic digital cross. Next trials will use cell leveling app that can give height & angle values to compare and verify RV level controller. I will initial manual level, then put level pads under tires to meet ground height and wedge to anti-roll. Then finalize with fine tune level ... What do you think? Do you have any suggestions to help me? I am surprised that mfg level ok with side-side @ 3deg & front to rear @ 6deg but RV low point level lites remain on. Can still see slope on outside box too.

    • @GetGonewithUS
      @GetGonewithUS  Před 3 lety

      Hi Milton. Your best bet is to get a LevelMate Pro (link is in the description block below the video). When we get to a site, Cheryl guides me in and using the app for LevelMate Pro on her phone. She is able to see where we are the closest to being level on her phone and that's where we park the rig. Usually for anything over 5" off we use wheel blocks and leveler blocks if necessary. We never try to wedge anything under the tires or levelers. The LevelMate Pro tells us how far off each tire from being level. For example if it's 6", we'll put probably one or 2 rows under the tire that is off and let the levelers make up the difference. That's how we level. Safe Travels. 😀

    Thanks for your great video. I have a problem in the bedroom in the back. The head board is the in slider, and i noticed the large tile has slipped down about 7 inches and it felt wet. I believe tge moisture caused the glue not to hold, this has caused the night stand to be too tight and has the night stand to not be level, how do I get access to the tile to bring it back up where it belongs. Or where can I get my question answered. I would appreciate any help. And even it any of your subscribers have had this happen I will fix the leak for sure.

    • @GetGonewithUS
      @GetGonewithUS  Před 2 lety +1

      Glad you liked the video. I believe on our system it is Retract All only. That being said, you don’t have to retract them all the way. If you release the button in manual mode they stop retracting and you can start again from where you stopped.

Think my tires are all on the ground now. Can these hydraulic jacks actually handle the weight of the motorhome? When I had a 24-ft RV with manual jacks I bent one by accident.

    Maybe I missed it, what do you do if the parking spot is a little more out of level that the levelers can handle? I guess front to back might be more common in mountain type areas. I really enjoyed video and hope to buy a class C with level system installed.

    • @GetGonewithUS
      @GetGonewithUS  Před 3 lety +1

      Hi Ronald. Levelers are not the cure all to every situation. You still need to carry leveling blocks to put under the tires if the site you are in is way out of being level. Thankfully that doesn't happen too often. As long as our LevelMate Pro says each corner of the RV is 5" or less from being level, we use just the levers. Hope that helps.

    Thank you so much for this video! The first few times I leveled my RV (newbie here), the front tires were off the ground. When I retracted the jacks to try again, they retracted suddenly and to me it felt like they dropped the RV to the ground. How bad is it that it this happened? How can I prevent this from happening - should I just manually level?

    • @GetGonewithUS
      @GetGonewithUS  Před 3 lety +1

      Hi Danni! It will always feel like a sudden drop with hydraulic levelers, but it is best if the wheels are on a solid surface or blocks first. 😀 When using LevelMate Pro if we can't get within 5" of being level on all the tires, we put wheel blocks under the tires that are more than 5" off. We never use AUTO, we prefer to manually level using LevelMate Pro. There is a link to it in the description Box under the video. We have another video on the channel that shows to calibrate the leveling system, in case yours is out of sync (Power Gear Levelers). The link to that is also in the description box below the video.

    • @GetGonewithUS
      @GetGonewithUS  Před 3 lety +1

      Hi Mike. If by 'too high' you mean you have tires off the ground, it could be the site it really off being level or the AUTO setting needs to be recalibrated. Easiest way to check if your AUTO is off, is to level it then check it with a bubble level. If the site is off level, (which we have run into quite a few times) you need to use blocks under your tires. We use Levelmate Pro and if we are off more than 5" on any tire we put blocks under it first, before leveling. We do have a video on how to calibrate the Power Gear Levelers that we have Link to Levelmate Pro... amzn.to/2JcpCIx Link to How to recalibrate levers... czcams.com/video/P34LJLlcnAw/video.html

      If you are referring to the parking brake not being on and the warning light coming on. That is the way our levelers work. The light is to let us know it needs to be applied. The levelers won't come down until the brake is applied. If the levelers were down and we released the parking brake, the alarm would have gone off and all the lights on the panel would be flashing. 😀

      No, Automatic has never gotten all zero's on Levelmate Pro. We even recalibrated the Zero Point on the leveling system using the Levelmate Pro and still didn't zero out. You can level using Automatic and when it is done, press the Manual Button for 3-5 seconds and when the light comes on you can tweak it. That being said, Auto should get it close enough to be fine too, we just prefer using Levelmate Pro. 😃

    I enjoyed the video. We’re new and having issues with leveling. We also have the Powerlevel Series for our 2020 Winn Forza diesel pusher. I have several questions: blocks under tires vs under pads, what do you recommend how to approach this issue; when using manual leveling, how can you tell when the front pads are down since I didn’t see a light go on during the demo, and did you say to raise them 3” after you’ve put them down and how can you know w/o physically checking. All for now but I thought it was a very good demo.

    • @GetGonewithUS
      @GetGonewithUS  Před 2 lety

      Hi Stephen, glad you enjoyed the video! We have Power Gear Levelers, not sure if that is what you meant to type. If not then you may have a different setup. You should always check your manual for your setup. We will usually put blocks under the tires if we are more than 5" off. If we are way off we will also put blocks under the levelers. Easy way we found to determine how far off we are is with LevelMate Pro... amzn.to/3gzMsJN As soon as your front levelers hit the ground you will start to feel the rig lift in the front. The Levelmate Pro will show when you hit the 3" mark. Otherwise just try to judge the 3" inches, it doesn't have to be exact. Happy Trails and safe travels! 😀
