Dock Leveller ED
4 Description
The Dock Leveller ED is intended for the loading and unloading of trucks with
the aid of vehicles such as forklifts or electric pallet trucks.
The Dock Leveller consists of a deck, two consoles with bumpers and two
optional guard rails. The deck is mounted on the edge of a loading platform by
a mounting plate set or by an angled bar. The angled bar has to be fitted with
anchors in the platform during pouring the concrete. In an existing building or
platform you will have to use a mounting plate set. The power pack is mounted
in the right console and feeds a single acting cylinder and is activated by a
push button on the control box. This cylinder moves the deck upwards. When
releasing the push button the deck will be floating, but in the fully upward
position the locking mechanism will hold the deck in this position. The toe
guard rails prevent persons or equipment falling off the deck. For maintenance,
inspection or repair it is necessary to use the maintenance support. See Placing
