Which way is up on trailer landing gear?
Yeah, pulling handle towards you (out from trailer) is low gear, pushing it inboard (towards trailer) is high gear. Inbetween (low and high) is neutral. The problem is different manufacturers have clockwise for up/down or counterclockwise for up/down.
Why does my landing gear not work when lowering the trailer?
In the same way, any jack – even a manual hand-crank type – requires less power (or force) when lowering the trailer than when lifting it. The cause for your powered landing gear losing steam could be any of several possibilities.
How to troubleshoot a fifth wheel landing gear problem?
I’m troubleshooting a landing gear problem on a fifth wheel. When I extend the landing gear the motor seems to make a skipping sound and has a hard time raising the trailer. I’m trying to determine if there is a gear box problem or a motor problem. I believe the legs are not bent, and there is no rear end jacks down.

Why is my landing gear not lifting my trailer?
The landing gear will operate until the feet hit the ground and puts a load on the landing gear. The fuse pops or the wiring melts. I have to use hydraulic jacks to raise and lower my trailer. I have the LIppert system with the wireless remote control.
