Abstract
A detachable jack assembly for attaching to a hitch, including a leg having a first member movably connected to a foot member; a crank assembly disposed on the first member and having a rotatable arm, the crank assembly operably connecting the first member to move the foot member relative to the first member when the arm is rotated; an attachment member disposed on the first member and having a pin hole formed therein; a pin configured to fit in the pin hole; and a lock-out assembly disposed on the attachment member, including a bar member biased to a first position and movable to a second position, wherein the rotation of the rotatable arm is limited by the bar member when the bar member is in the first position, and the rotatable arm moves freely when the bar member is in the second position, wherein, when the pin is disposed in the pin hole, and the bar member is in the second position, the pin maintains the bar member in the second position.
