I was told some time ago that the best way to use the front landing legs was to keep the inner and outer portions as close together as possible to increase the strength. So, I usually put the snap pin so that only five holes are showing.
Problem is, the landing jacks go down so slowly that it takes several minutes for the legs to extend and again about the same time to retract. Should the gearing be so slow?
I made this comment to LSI in Elkhart when I dropped off my unit for repairs, due to an accident I had in Florida. At LSI, they just dropped the legs down all the way which then took very little time. I mentioned that I always try the use as much of the outer leg as possilbe and why and did not get any reaction.
What is your experience? Am I just being overly cautious?
