2007 Montana 3400RL

I am having trouble with fuses blowing on landing gear. Any thoughts
would be appreciated.
What size fuse is being used? It takes at least a 30-amp fuse. The only time my fuse blew was shortly after we had the rig and we had to raise the front quite a bit. When it blew, I checked and it was only 20 amps. Put a 30-amp fuse in and it's been there over five years now with no problems. However, now when I have to raise the front end higher due to uneven terrain, I stop and let the motor rest a little while I do some other things like getting the satellite dish out, water filters, hoses, etc. The motor will get pretty warm when it is a hard lift. On top of that, our front end is heavier than normal because we have two Lifeline D8 batteries which weigh 150 lbs each.
