Specifications

The Trailer Valet JX Series is a line of manual hand-crank trailer jacks that have the versatility to be powered using any standard 18-24V drill and a Trailer Valet Drill Attachment. Designed for consumers to make hitching and adjusting quick and easy in comparison to standard hand-crank jacks, the line comes in two weight capacities with either side or center mount options. Each product comes standard with a hand crank, drill attachment, and static footplate. Accessories such as the JX Wheel option are sold separately.

• Upon removing items from packaging, it is very important to thoroughly inspect all parts of the system before using the device. Any part that is missing or damaged must be immediately replaced.

Assembly

Prior to installation, raise the trailer tongue until you have adequate space to attach the jack. The unit must be attached while the weight of the trailer is supported by an existing support or tow vehicle. Having wheel chocks in place during connection will ensure a safe installation.

SIDE JACK INSTALLATION

Place the mounting bracket onto an 8-inch clearing on your frame where the jack can freely rotate from its vertical position to its horizontal stow position. Secure with the four included bolts at desired height.

WARNING

• The Mount Bracket is only to be installed on trailer frames that are rectangular in profile. Cylindrical frames are not compatible with the Mount Bracket.
• While it is recommended that the bracket is installed with the attachment point in the low position for stability, the bracket can be flipped prior to install if needed.
• If installing the 5k model, you will now need to place the connection point of the Jack tube into the Mount bracket.
• Fasten with the included Stow/Clevis pin. Then, set the cotter pin through the Stow/Clevis pin. These pins are to be removed when either detaching or stowing the jack.
• The JX5K-S mount bracket comes with a security bolt that is an option to secure the device. If you choose to use it, the bolt slots through the back of the mounting bracket and threads into the attachment point of the jack.

CENTER JACK INSTALLATION

• With the footplate detached, drop the jack into the hole located in the trailer’s coupler. Note that the support plate on the jack has one point that is flattened. This corner should face forward, toward the front of the coupler.
• You can now fit the jack to the coupler. Bolt sizes are specific to your coupler and are not included with your JX purchase. Alternatively, the center jack can also be welded for a more permanent attachment to the trailer.

operating instructions

ATTACHING DRIVER

Manual Operation

• Attach the Drive Handle to the Driveshaft located at the top of the unit. Turning the handle clockwise will extend the jack. Turning the handle counter-clockwise will retract the Jack.

Drill Adapter

• The Drill Adapter can be used with any standard 18 to 24 volt, ½ inch chuck, consumer drill. Corded drills and impact drills are not recommended.
• Slot the Drill Adapter in your Drill chuck and secure tightly to avoid the adapter slipping. Align and insert the Drill Adapter to the driveshaft.

NOTE: If you are using a power drill, be sure your battery pack is fully charged before use. Follow your drill/driver manufacturer’s recommendation.

• When using an electric drill, it will have high initial torque if the drill trigger is pulled rather than squeezed. For proper use, hold the drill firmly and begin to squeeze the trigger slowly, increasing the power up to an appropriate speed.

STORING THE DEVICE

• After use, lower your jack until your trailer frame sits level and remove the drill/drive handle.
• If storing, ensure that the trailer frame is jacked to level height. Alternatively, the jack’s stow position will allow it to remain attached to the trailer while being towed.

To stow the unit, secure the trailer to a tow vehicle then crank the jack handle until the inner jack tube is fully withdrawn and choose between the following two options:

Stowing the JX5K-S

• Remove the cotter and clevis/stow pin and rotate the unit 90 degrees. Restore the clevis and stow pins while the unit remains attached to the mounting bracket.

Stowing the JX2K-S

• Pull the set pin by the ring away from your trailer frame and rotate the unit 90 degrees. Release the pin and the Jack will lock into place.

WARNING: Failure to lock in the pins and bolt prior to trailering with the unit in the stowed position may result in the unit becoming dislodged during movement.Visit our website to see a video on how to stow your Trailer Valet Jack.
