Proper maintenance for leveling jacks

I am getting ready for a trip and am wondering what kind of maintenance is recommended for the leveling jacks. There is no info in the owners manual. Thanks

Find out what brand of Jack's you have, then look them up they should give you more info than you wanted. Good luck with your search.

Spray jack cylinder with WD-40 and wipe it off once a year. Has worked on all 3 of our Newmar's.

Do this... Make sure to wipe it off, don’t use silicone lube. You are cleaning the pistons. You might want to check the fluid level in the reservoir and add if low.
