Level Up
I've noticed several have stated to use the level up system to raise the tires off the ground. Is this safe and done hooked up with front up and using rear only or unhooked with the front down.

I've done it both hooked up and when we were unhooked in a park with no problems.

The Original Poster for the Level-Up listed the ability to use the system to change a tire as a selling feature. But think the Lawyers got involved and liability issues, thus a No-No per them.
I've done it numerous times on three different units, and haven't broken anything yet.

Use mine all the time to lift the unit to lube shackles, hubs, check tires for wear and cuts.

As said above...Lawyers panicked and made them change it to CTA. It can be done without issue if on level ground.
