If it's listed in the Yellow Pages, the government shouldn't be messing around with it.

In short, yes - dump the air bags first.

the hwh 610 will dump the air for you. just push the top button twice and forget it.

tommy wilson is correct. Once you've parked, turn off key and move to left acc position. Turn on HWH computer via push button on pad. Press a second time and the air will automatically be dumped. The only reason I ever override and manually dump air is when I'm on a particularly bad slope. In that case, I'll dump most all of the air to get the coach as low as possible before leveling. That way it's no further in the air than it needs to be.
