Is it good to exercise?

Is it good to exercise the hydraulic levelers once a month? Even in the winter?

I recently installed Big Foot levelers and I keep my RV inside a well insulated storage unit. I check on it once a week when weather is nice (and im in town) and about once every other week in the wintertime.

I have only used my levelers a few times (still very new to me) in testing only. A few test with several days of deployed to check for leaks.

I have read pros and cons on leaving them DOWN all the time and I opt to leave mine up (retracted).

But Im thinking it might be a good Idea to exercise them ones a month and either leave down for 30 min or so or perhaps a day or two then retract??

What do you think?
