Casita Electric Jack Question

Hello! I have a new pre owned 2012 Casita 17' Spirit with an electric jack. Lucky me! I was watching a video that said I should carry a manual jack (crank?) in case the electric jack or battery fails. No such crank came with my Casita and I have looked over the tongue and see no place I could even put a manual crank. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide. Sherri

I have never seen one in person, but think the manual crank is a dog-leg affair that goes in the top of the jack somewhere. Where in Florida? We are in Tally.

Sherri,

The Casita website indicates that they will sell you a Barker VIP 3,500 lb tongue jack. You will need to verify if this is the unit on your Casita.

If so, the manual and parts list can be downloaded at https://www.barkermfg.com/vip-3500.html

I hope this helps.
