Operation
The platform is raised by activating the pull-chain release assembly at the rear of the platform. A multi-spring counterbalance assembly raises the platform and a fully yieldable hinged lip is extended at the top of the upward travel. The attendant walks the platform down onto the trailer bed. If the trailer bed is blow dock level the attendant activates a second pull chain at the front of the platform during walk down. Operable range is 12" above and 12" below dock level. The platform is designed to service out of level trailers with up to 4" of flex and remains flush with dock floor. A full float hold down provides platform float for vertical trailer movement.
Safety Features
- Dual pivoting cross traffic legs for multi position safety at dock level and below.
- Self contained lip control yields under impact from incoming trucks.
- Built in lockout/tagout maintenance inspection strut.
