I'm going to try lubricating the many pivot points to see if that helps.
So I had to get online to find the proper manual since the one that Thor provided covered class As and Cs and didn't have my awning, jacks, and other components in it. I had to stack a chair on a picnic table to start retracting. It is very slow. I got doused by pooled up water and now my drill won't work. Waiting on a neighbor to charge his to borrow. I get low voltage messages on the jacks even when the generator is on? Plugged in they seem to work. My zero point is pretty far off though. I tried manual but can't seem to keep the wheels on the ground unless I accept a 2-3 degree tilt nose down. Clearance is 5 3/4 retracted in the front and 6.5 retracted in the back. This was a concern but there's literally no more room to move the jacks upward (on the front ones) since it's already butted up against the frame.
