No absolute right or wrong here unless your manual for the jacks or the MH contradicts what I just said.
Suit yourself. I do not put my jacks down, tires lasted 10 years easy, no flat spots ever. I store for long periods of time. No one in my storage area has their jacks down. But lots of people on this forum have said they run them down and leave them. Probably like RV covers; a few do but most do not.
As to why I do not? Well I guess I think that if they are down and under pressure then there is more of a chance of something happening while I am not there; springing a leak in one jack comes to mind. Even so I guess it would not be such a problem as to do harm, but I like them tucked away. Frankly I never gave it much thought one way or the other. It doesn't hurt to have them tucked nor to have them down. If they are down I guess you need to clean them up after a long storage before raising them. I would.
Think it over and do what you think is best in your circumstance and that would be a right decision for you I am sure.
