Since I originally posted about the 80 amp breaker, the other large wire on the same terminal as the pump wire is the one that connects to the main panel via the battery disconnect switch. You don’t have load from the panel when operating the slides and leveling system and when you are using the loads on the panel you aren’t operating the hydraulics, so this arrangement works just fine. As far as replacing the other small breaker for a larger one, I would not because all the loads that can be on it are much less than it is rated for and to double it will be like not having any protection on those circuits. If something were to short, you will seriously melt the wire that is faulted which could cause a fire.
