operating instructions
Using the Trailer Valet with
the jack extended will cause excessive
wear on the jack and possible result in
injury and/or property damage. Always
lower the Trailer tongue to its lowest
position on the unit or until your trailer
frame is level with the ground.
STEP 5: ATTACHING DRIVER
Option 1: Manual Operation
Attach the Drive Handle to the low or high
gear Driveshaft.
The low gear drive shaft (located nearer to
the top of the unit) allows greater control
of the unit and may assist in moving into/
through very tight spots.
The high gear drive shaft (located lower on
the unit) allows for greater movement to
cover distance. Choose your gear according
to your needs.
NOTE: It is recommended to start it the low
gear to get a feel for safety and control.
Option 2: Drill Adapter (sold separately)
The Drill Adapter can be used with any
standard 18 to 24 volt, 1⁄2 inch chuck,
commercial drill. Corded drills and impact
drills are not recommended.
Step 4: TESTING THE ASSEMBLY
Remove the rotation pin from the bottom
of the jack and, if the trailer is attached to
a towing vehicle, turn the crank to raise the
trailer up o the hitch. Move the hitch from
under your coupler.
NOTE: Always ensure the operator and
bystanders are aware of load stability.
Remember to also disconnect any towing
safety chains, the brake-turn signal wire
harness, and any other connections.
Raise your pre-existing trailer jack and
lower the 5X unit until your trailer frame
is preferably level with the ground. Your
pre-existing trailer jack should be raised
until it sits at about three inches above the
ground and the trailer’s weight is supported
entirely by the Trailer Valet. Keep your
trailer jack close to the ground to buer any
unexpected failures.

website if you need a visual guide to install
