Jack can bind when fully extended on a sloped driveway

Pebble's support phone lines were down, but I reached out to Pebble staff, who connected me directly with the support team, and we got it handled. Thank you, support team!

Good to know. My Pebble will be used as an office and probably static for long periods of time. Pebble Support assured me this wouldn't be a problem at all. Knowing hydraulics, I asked if I should decamp once a week to refresh the lines, etc. They said not necessary. Think I'll do it anyway hearing this. Thanks!
The main problem causing the issue I experienced was that the jack was fully extended for a long period of time. My driveway is sloped and I engaged Insta Camp, so it self-leveled fully extended. I would just recommend if you find your Pebble's jack fully extended during Insta Camp, just back it down a tad and you should be fine. Either way, it's an easy fix using the tools Pebble supplies with the unit.
I had a similar situation in my sloped driveway. Was your issue the same as mine—that the leveling components can get in a “pressure bind” (aka “stuck”) situation in the right circumstances when fully extended and pressure loaded? Or was yours that the jack was actually stuck for some other reason and it was due to the length of time it was fully extended?
Sounds like a similar issue that you had. Support had me open the triangular lid on the aerobox and use a socket wrench to release the stuck jack.
