DEFINITION AND FUNCTION
The GWL-2300 vehicle restraint is a truck and trailer
locking system used to help secure trucks and trailers to
the face of a loading dock. The engagement mechanism is
positioned by the trailer as it approaches the loading dock.
The locking arm assembly, which blocks the rear wheel of
the truck or trailer, can then be engaged by pressing the
LOCK push button.
This prevents forward movement of the truck/trailer that
may create an unsafe void between the face of the dock
and the rear end of the truck/trailer as the forklift travels
from the loading dock onto the trailer; and creates an
obstruction noticeable (via outside lights) to the truck
driver, should the driver accidentally try to pull the truck/
trailer away while it is being serviced.
NOTEE:
There is no need to hold button to maintain its
function. Once a button is depressed, the GWL-2300
vehicle restraint will lock or unlock for a preset time interval.
The normal mode of the restraint is the locking arm
assembly stored at the far end (away from the dock) with
the barrier arm on the approach. Inside lights should be
on red and outside lights should be on green.
The proper activation of the barrier and the locking
mechanism is monitored by:
Visual Control
One set of green and red lights located inside the building
for the dock personnel, and one set located outside the
building for the truck driver. See Figure 2.
Audio Control
A horn will sound at the inside of the building, warning
the forklift operator if there is no R.I.G. present, or if the
engagement is improper. In this case, the trailer must
be secured by other means (wheel chocks, etc.) prior to
servicing trailer. See Figure 3.
