Leveler platform with retractable lip, DS series

The electro-hydraulic platform with a retractable ramp of the DS series is used in cases where it is necessary to position the ramp in the body as accurately as possible, as well as when loading vehicles from the side. Ramp segments provide the ability to work with vehicles whose width is less than the width of the platform.

DCUT-1 control unit. Standard. 400V 3 phase power supply. Operates a dock leveler via a constant-pressure push-button. Returs the dock leveler to stored position via a constant-pressure push-button. Blocks the dock leveler when the door is closed.

DCUT-2 control unit. With advanced functions. 400V 3 phase power supply. Operates the dock leveler via a constant-pressure push-button. Returns the dock leveler to stored position via one pressure of AUTO button. Blocks the dock leveler when the door is closed. Can be connected to indoor and outdoor traffic lights. Lights at platform area. Maintenance service indicator. Digital display.

DCUT-3 control unit. Complex control panel which operates various combinations of loading dock equipment. 400V 3 phase power supply. Operates the dock leveler via a constant-pressure push-button.

These wheel guides are fixed to the surface with anchor bolts or embedded into a concrete foundation.

Safety fences. Fences are placed inside the premise to protect the walls from collisions with forklifts, ensuring correct and safe movement of the vehicle inside the premises and near the loading dock. Fences are made of steel tubes of 100–159 mm diameter, may have any design and be manufactured in accordance with customer’s orders.

Standard lip 500 mm. 35 mm bevel. Whole rectangular lip for trucks with one-size load bed.

Lip 1 000 mm. 35 mm bevel. Elongated whole rectangular lip for trucks with one-size load bed. Applied when standard length lip is not enough or when overhead door of heated loading dock shuts in front of the leveler closing the thermal contour of the building.

Segmented lip. 35 mm bevel. Has three segments. Sliding out entirely it allows using only central or central and side segments with trucks whose load bed is narrower than the standard one. Applicable only with 6 000 kg capacity levelers.

Segmented lip. 35 mm bevel. Has five segments. Sliding out entirely it allows using only central or central and one to four side segments with trucks whose load bed is narrower than the standard one. Applicable only with 6 000 kg capacity levelers.

Wedge-shaped lip. 35 mm bevel. Whole, without segments. Such levelers are ideal for trucks with different-size load beds or in case a truck parks not in the center of the loading dock preventing truck damage.

Lip without bend. 35 mm bevel. Whole, without segments. Rectangular lip ideal for trucks with one-size load bed and loaders with low or very low clearance.

Conduct routine inspections and maintenance of the dock leveler to ensure its safe and smooth operation.

Keep people and goods clear of working area while operating the dock leveler.

Keep overhead door fully open while operating the dock leveler.

Make sure the vehicle is properly parked against the dock bumpers. Chock the wheels if needed.

Do not drive on the leveler unless the lip is securely positioned on the truck bed and has a minimum of 100 mm overlap on its surface.

Ensure that the control unit location allows operator to clearly see and control dock leveler operation.

Use dock levelers with 1,3 Н/mm² point load only with standard forklifts having inflatable wheels.

Use dock levelers with 6,5 Н/mm² point load with loading machinery having high point load, including electric stackers, pallet carriers, reach trucks, order picking stackers on polyurethane wheels.
