I realize this thread is kind of old but it is the only one I have found on the topic so far. I just picked up my new Bighorn 3750FL last week and probably won't get to use it till spring so I don't even know if I will need a tripod yet. My question is can you use a tripod with he 6 pt Levelup? When we went to the Hershey show I could have sworn that one of the Heartland dealers there said the level system would adjust for change in weight or other conditions and I thought we even heard the pump running in a unit we were in when a few more people came in to view it. Is this incorrect? Does the unit only level itself if you push the button again or is it automatic? If it adjusts by itself I would think the tripod would interfere and may cause stress on the nose.
Hi dieseldogsdad,
The levelup system only runs when you push buttons on the control panel. Then it shuts off.
From many past comments, I would say that most owners don't find the pinbox tripods to be very effective.
If you're experiencing movement of the coach with all 6 jacks on the ground, you might try chocking the wheels.
Another consideration is that the greater the extension on the landing jacks, particularly the front jacks, the more motion you're likely to have. If you place 10-12" blocks under the front jacks, you'll have a more stable setup.
And no matter what you do, if you have a washing machine, the spin cycle will introduce some shaking.
