I use an cordless drill with a socket and set it for a high torque setting then torque my all four of my jacks to the same setting. That way you know you are not twisting the frame/trailer. Make sure you check them at least 2 times initially to ensure they are all the same torque.

I just giggle when I see men out there with a hand crank just cranking away, breaking a sweat while I sit with my cordless drill in my lap.
