A jack assembly for mounting on the hitch arm of a wheeled implement frame supports the wheeled frame relative to a ground surface upon which the wheeled frame is engaged. A jack frame of the assembly is fixedly mounted onto the implement frame and pivotally supports a leg for movement between a raised transport position and a lowered position to support the implement frame elevated above the ground when stationary. A first catch on a retainer member pivotal on the jack frame cooperates with a second catch on a link member pivotal on the leg. A linear actuator coupled between the jack frame and the link member acts to both (i) release the catches and extend the leg towards the lowered position, and (ii) engage the catches and raised the leg towards the raised position.
