I need to grease my jack stand on my GN trailer. Never had it done before. (when I took it in last, dealership didn't seem to care to want to do it like I asked)trailer is about 6-7 years old. Does anyone have pics showing what to do? If it is easy enough, I would like to do it and not have to take it to the RV guy if possible. What grease should I use? Thanks!

If a grease fitting is present, you must use a grease gun to lubricate the jack mechanism. Grease the gears in the top of hand-cranked jacks once a year, by removing the top of the jack and pumping or hand packing grease into the gears.
