Install Control Panel and Wiring
DO NOT connect the vehicle restraint electrical
wiring and ground connections until all welding has
been completed.
DO NOT ground welding equipment to any electrical
components of the vehicle restraint. Always ground
welding equipment to the vehicle restraint base,
NEVER to the moving components.
Failure to follow these instructions may damage the
motor, hydraulics, wiring, and/or control panel.
Make sure that the power source has been locked
out and tagged according to OSHA regulations and
approved local electrical codes.
All electrical work — including the installation of the
disconnect panel, control panel, and final connections
to the pit junction box — must be performed by a
certified electrician and conform to all local and
applicable national codes.

INSTALLATION
1. Mount the push-button control panel (

) so
bottom of control panel-to-dock floor distance (
C
) is
48 in. (1219 mm). See Figure 11.
2. Install electrical disconnect panel (
A
) if not already
installed. Disconnect panel supplied by others.
3. Install and connect the control wiring.
4. Connect the control wiring to the field wires in the
restraint junction box. Refer to the electrical diagrams
supplied with the vehicle restraint. See pages 32-33
for wiring troubleshooting if needed.
5. Seal the conduit in any location where the conduit
crosses over temperature zones that could produce
condensation.
Optional:
Install spacers between the wall and
enclosure to provide temperature insulation and air
flow. If the conduit could fill with water, a drip leg
may be needed.
6. Install placard (see page 18).
Where indicated, all components must be connected
to a SAFETY EARTH GROUND that conforms to
the 1999 National Electrical Code Section 250-50
section (a) or section (c) for a grounding electrode
system.
