    LevelM – the hydraulic support leg system for motorhomes

    Levelling your vehicle horizontally is easy, quick and fully automatic with our Level M hydraulic levelling system, specially developed for motorhomes. E&P's intelligent control electronics ensure that the vehicle's weight is always distributed over several supports at the same time, preventing torsional forces that could cause serious damage.

    Comfortable adjustment

    The standard E&P LevelM set consists of four supports, each capable of lifting a load of at least two tonnes. The hydraulic supports can be easily extended and retracted, even if they are stuck in mud or frozen. For your own safety, the system's electronics are programmed so that the supports can generally only be used when the engine is switched off.

    Levelling system meets air suspension

    A major advantage of the LevelM levelling system is the E&P air release system for air suspension. This makes it possible to control full air suspension systems from almost all manufacturers. The system is designed so that it can be used for both two-channel and four-channel full air suspension systems. The air bellows are thus automatically lowered to a low level. The vehicle is then placed in a horizontal position using the LevelM system.

    Control with added value

    LevelM compensates for unevenness and slopes precisely and quickly. In addition, the system can be controlled manually, for example to set a comfortable sleeping position or to completely empty the waste water tank. An individual position for emptying the tank can be saved.

    Operation is via a permanently installed control panel as standard. As an option, LevelM can also be operated via a touchscreen by radio.

    FAQ

    Yes, this is useful for protecting tyres during long periods of storage, but it will not completely stop tyre degradation. It also provides extra security against theft. However, please ensure the exposed cylinders on the jacks are suitably protected from the elements, to prevent corrosion. This can be done with silicon spray, or by wrapping the hydraulic jacks with a cloth material.
    The E&P Hydraulics levelling system requires a fully charged battery to operate, it is an auto levelling device needing power, just like a fridge or heating system. However, you can retract the jacks manually if your battery is flat and unable to take a charge. This operation is explained in the user manual.
    12 volts – 800 watts The E&P Hydraulics Motorhome levelling system takes its power from either the vehicle’s main battery, or the leisure battery. Our system software is designed to protect the battery for primary functions, such as starting the engine. Therefore, if the battery voltage is low then the hydraulic levelling system cannot be used and an alarm will sound on the control panel to indicate this. As a result of this possible eventuality, and in the event you cannot charge your battery, there is a manual over-ride operation which can be applied should you require it to get off site and this is explained in the user manual.
    On average it can take between 12 and 16 hours to install an E&P Hydraulics Motorhome Levelsystem to our exacting standards. You would therefore be required to leave your motorhome with the dealer for 2 working days.
    No, any movements could cause the hydraulic levelling sensor to go out of synchronisation. It is also very important that you can see what is going on around and underneath the motorhome for safety reasons.
    Whilst you, the user, are responsible for ensuring your vehicle is safe to drive, there is an inbuilt safety feature ensuring the levelling system will only work when the hand brake is engaged. If you release the hand brake with the levelling jacks still deployed, whilst the ignition is on, an alarm will sound and the hydraulic jacks will retract immediately, to help prevent any damage.
