Installation Manual
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(continued)
INSTALL ROLLER TRACK
Install roller track onto dock face at specified location
by welding to an embedded steel plate or by using the
fifteen (15) concrete anchors provided in conjunction
with welding to pit steel and a leveler frame. Refer to
Figures B and C.
If you have questions, contact NOVA Technical Support
at (800) 236-7325.
NOTICE
The roller track must be plumb with dock face. If
not, use and weld (6) shims 2” wide x 25 5/8” long.
If shims are over 1/2” thick use longer anchors. If
shims need to be 1” thick or more, contact NOVA.
If the dock face is not perpendicular, contact
NOVA Technical Support at (800) 236-7325.
The carriage roller track cannot be bent or
deformed. Straighten or replace if necessary.
NOTE:
Trim roller track, as necessary, up to a
maximum of 5” from the bottom.
NOTE:
Some mechanical dock levelers have an
adjusting nut access hole in the leveler front subframe.
If the NOVA Lock-Up
™
vehicle restraint roller track
interferes with the access hole, the roller track must be
cut to allow access.
NOTE:
Some levelers are slightly recessed within the
pit and thus require a shim to be inserted between the
roller track and the leveler front subframe and welded
in place.
NOTICE
Fifteen (15) concrete anchors are provided with
each NOVA Lock-Up
™
vehicle restraint. An
anchor must be installed in each roller track hole
except for those plug-welded to embedded steel.
ANCHOR INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Put roller track in place.
2. Drill hole of 5/8” diameter and minimum of 4-5/8”
deep. Clean out hole.
3.
Insert anchor and drive flush with roller track, making
sure that the threaded wedge is inserted first. Do
not disassemble anchor prior to installation.
4. Install all anchors and torque to 60 ft-lbs. See
figure B.
