NO Dangerous Hydraulic Fluid, NO broken Hydraulic Hoses, NO leaking Hydraulic Seals, No threat of Hydraulic Oils to children or Pets, NO Damage to our Planet. Unlike other leveling systems on the market, PowerPlus doesn't use messy hydraulic oil to level your RV. Since PowerPlus Motor Home Levelers do not require any dangerous fluids, there are no leaky hoses, or heavy reservoirs taking up valuable storage space in and adding weight to your unit and is therefore more quickly installed. Since there is nothing to leak or get on you or your children, PowerPlus is much safer for the environment. PowerPlus operates completely from existing power sources in your unit. Our New Electric Motorhome Levelers represent a huge leap in design over the older less reliable Hydraulic Systems. Our Motor Home Jacks and Stabilizers do not rely on dangerous and harmful hydraulic fluid.
Each Power Plus Motorhome Jack operates with a high-torque water resistant electric motor, driving the jack to extend and retract whisper-quietly. PowerPlus Stabilizers smoothly level and stabilize your Motor Home by using full power during both extension and retraction. Full power retraction not only saves you from the jolt that you get with spring retraction jacks, but it also assures that your jacks won't get stuck in mud or ice that formed while you were enjoying your campsite. The New Power Plus Levelers operate with Efficiency, Power and Speed, out classing the older Hydraulic units.
PowerPlus Leveling Systems are the only leveling systems on the market that can readily be upgraded from manual to automatic control systems. You can start with the purchase of a 2-jack stabilizing system, add then add another 2 leveling jacks for 4-jack leveling and stabilizing convenience. You can even upgrade from a Standard to an advanced Computerized Automatic Control System, just push a button! PowerPlus Motor Home Levelers give you the freedom to choose what leveling system you need, and when you need it. You can do all this on your own Without the worry of installing expensive Hydraulic lines and pumps.
First, a word about twisting frames on RVs. Your RV frame is designed to allow a certain level of twist, otherwise it would not be possible to drive on any road. Frame twist will only pose problems to you if the twist is extreme, or if you try to open doors or put up awnings when the unit is twisted. When your unit has just one corner low, your frame is naturally twisted. Use your leveling system to neutralize this twist before setting up the rest of your camp.
PowerPlus systems avoid frame twisting, often caused by Hydraulic units, in several distinct ways. The PowerPlus Advanced Automatic System Computer evaluates the position of your Motor Home, gently brings the Motorhome to a level position, then stabilizes your Motorhome by quickly operating each jack just 3/16 inch at a time, all the way around the unit putting equal pressure on each jack for maximum stability. Upon retraction, PowerPlus gently retracts all jacks at once, allowing your Motorhome to gently settle back onto its suspension. Hydraulic systems allow one or two jacks to operate rapidly without adequate respect for frame twist or shock to the suspension. This can permanently twist and damage the frame of any Motorhome. Power Plus Levelers new and advanced design and engineering prevent frame twist.
The PowerPlus Standard and Basic systems allow you to operate a single jack to lift an individual corner, neutralizing any frame twist caused by the terrain. In addition, the PowerPlus independent control systems allow you to operate two jacks at once (up to a preset power limit) to eliminate the chances of twisting a frame that is flat, but low on one side or end. All jacks can be retracted at the same time, allowing the unit to gently settle back onto its suspension.
Hydraulic Stabilizers are always under pressure when working, that is how a Hydraulic system works. As long as there is pressure there is the chance for a hose to fatigue and leak, or a seal to fatigue and leak. If a leak occurs and there is loss of hydraulic fluid the system will not work. The result could be frame twist, or a family stuck, and a vacation spoiled. In addition the hydraulic spill could create ground contaminaion. Rember when working with hydraulic oils to always wear protective gloves. Consult the Material Safety Data Sheet for First Aid measures, Handling and Storage, Exposure Controls, Respiratory and Personal Protection. Hydraulic Spills should be cleaned and disposed according to Federal, State and Local regulations.
Unlike Hydraulic Jacks that rely on hydraulic pressure which can bleed down when seals leak, PowerPlus jacks are held mechanically. Once your Power Plus Leveler is lowered it is mechanically locked, eliminating the need for any continued power, preventing jack failure and frame twist. And certainly not exposing you or your family to the hazards and problems of hydraulic fluid and systems.
PowerPlus Motorhome levelers can also be used to relieve pressure on your Motorhome suspension while the Motor Home is in storage. This is commonly used to extend the life of your tires and suspension. Remember, unlike hydraulic systems, once the Power Plus levelers are lowered they are mechanically locked until raised. This allows you to rest at ease for months on end or until you use your Motor Home again. We recommend that you remove the stress on your Motor Home while in storage. Motorhomes are heavy and over time will warp any suspension, loosing ride quality, suspension performance and saftey. Your Motor Home tires will also last longer and flat spotting will be avoided.
After a trip, just hose the road debris and dust off of your PowerPlus jacks, and you're ready to go again! Aside from that, the pivot points on PowerPlus swing jacks and the scissor jack screw take just a little bit of lubrication two to three times each year under heavy road use. It is that easy. Remember with Power Plus you have an advanced and safe electric system, you do not have to check and tighten hydraulic fittings, check hydraulic hoses for leaks or fatige, there are no hydraulic seals to replace, or fluid to add. With Power Plus we make it Safe and Easy.
PowerPlus Automatic control leveling systems are simple to use. Just press a button and the computer takes over for you. Nothing could be easier! PowerPlus Automatic leveling systems also offer manual override switches for each jack to give you that extra bit of control when you need it.
PowerPlus Standard and Basic control systems are just as easy to operate. Each jack is controlled by a single switch, and you can operate more than one jack at a time! Extend or retract all four jacks together, or operate two jacks in tandem, pulsing them one to two seconds at a time to prevent frame twisting.
Each PowerPlus leveling system is fully tested before leaving the factory. This ensures that every PowerPlus owner receives the highest quality components for his or her new PowerPlus system. To prove our commitment to quality, a 3-year limited warranty backs every PowerPlus leveling system. This warranty, one of the longest in the business, assures you that we stand behind the products that we produce, and that we will be here to take care of you and your RV for many years to come. How can we do that, its Simple. Our Systems are strong, fast and durable. Plus they are electric, so they do not need yards of hydraulic hoses, seals, couplers, all of which are prone to failure. Basically there are many less moving parts. Hence, electric leveling systems are rapidly gaining acceptance in heavy industrial as well as military application, and now you can use them too.
Imagine a bright spring day. As you drive in, a cool breeze rustles through the new green leaves sprouting on the campground's oak trees; you hear a splash in the lake behind you. You can almost taste freshly grilled bass as you see his tail dip below the water again - Can't wait to get your fishing rod?
The average automatic leveling sequence with PowerPlus just takes the push of a button. About two minutes later, you're level - much quicker and easier than using boards and bottle jacks, as fast or faster than old hydraulic systems! Your setup will be done before you know it with PowerPlus. You will also feel comfortable that you have not exposed your family to hydraulic oils, nor have you left all of those nasty oil puddles behind.
PowerPlus leveling systems have maintained a strong presence in Europe since their introduction. We introduced the first prototype of the PowerPlus scissor jack at the 1995 Caravan Salon Düsseldorf, the largest RV show in the world, and the response to the scissor jack was overwhelming. Since that time, the PowerPlus scissor jack has rocketed to the top of the European market, joining the rest of the PowerPlus line.
European countries maintain stringent standards of quality, safety, and environmental consciousness. Achieving success in Europe has required PowerPlus to maintain a constant awareness of product standards and a program of continual product improvement. We hope that you will also appreciate the quality, safety, and environmental benefits that the cutting edge technology of a Power Plus system offers.
Electric leveling systems give you many great advantages over hydraulics. For instance, a fully electric leveling system saves storage space because there is no bulky fluid reservoir. Installation time is shorter because there are no hydraulic hoses to run and YOU will have no leaks or worn gasket worries. No hydraulic lines, reservoir or fluid also means less weight and that translates into better gas mileage.
But the best advantage is that the PowerPlus electric leveling system is easy to use and it comes with a limited three year warranty!
PowerPlus leveling systems have been installed on many specialty units, standing up to the rigors of TV satellite transmission units to mobile medical units around the world. These commercial uses attest to PowerPlus's rugged reliability and convenience of use.
