Power Stabilizers Destroying Themselves

That's if I remember right and I think I do...

My motor has no auto breaker. There is a mini-breaker up in the basement near the battery, but Ive never pushed it far enough to trip that.

I level the trailer first using blocks under tires, then the stabs come down.

And that is how they are supposed to be used.

That is how I have been doing it as well.
