- Apply three 2-inch-long 1/4” fillet welds on both sides of the jack along the contacting surface.
- Ensure welds are as far apart as possible for maximum load strength.
- For tandem applications, align jacks to raise and lower together while sharing the load.
Weld-On Pivot Tube Mounting:
- Weld the non-beveled side of the pivot tube to the trailer tongue using a 1/4” fillet weld.
- Align the pivot mount holes vertically and secure the jack to the pivot tube with the supplied pin.
