Adjust Storage Prop
Storage Prop Adjustment
Note:
When set properly, the storage prop will have
approximately 1/2” to 1” of play (
G
) with the leveler in
the stored position. See Figure 33.
Too little or too much play can cause damage to the
storage prop and create a safety hazard.
To adjust the storage prop:
1. Put the dock leveler in the stored position.
2. Turn OFF all electrical power to the leveler.
3. Lock out and tag out the dock leveler, then place
the maintenance props in their service/down position
with hardware tightened by wrench.
4. Remove the cotter pin holding the upper storage
prop clevis pin (
H
) in place, then remove the clevis
pin from the storage prop yoke (
J
).
5. Adjust the yoke on the storage prop until the prop
has between 1/2” (minimum) and 1” (maximum) of
play with the yoke connected to the platform.
Note:
When the storage prop is correctly adjusted,
approximately 1-1/2 threads should be exposed
through the yoke.
6. Replace the upper storage prop clevis pin and
reinstall the cotter pin.
7. Raise the maintenance props to the stored
position and tighten all hardware.
8. Remove lock out/tag out devices and turn ON
electrical power to the leveler.
9. Test leveler and repeat steps 1– 7 as necessary.
