Problem with front jacks?- Yeah, operator problems

Getting ready to leave Palo Duro Canyon and started raising front jacks. In-line 30 amp fuse blew. Only had a 25 amp fuse but installed it and tried again. Blew again. What is wrong?. Never a problem before. Only had some 15 amps left, but why not try? Blew again.
Looked for campground host but could not find them. Went to campground store but they had no fuses.
OK. Break out the handle and do it manually. Very hard to raise. Then it hits me. Why don't you loosen the T handles on the JT Strongarm stabilizers dummy? Was glad I had not found the hosts now.
Loosened those, put in another 15 amp fuse, and jacks raised fine. Replace the 15 with the proper 30 at next stop.
Hopefully I learned a lesson there.
