8. With rear hinge frame angle (F) tight against rear

pit curb angle (G), perform/check the following:

• Pry between the platform and rear hinge frame

angle at locations (E) to make sure rear edge of

platform is parallel to the rear hinge frame angle

(F).

• Gap (D) must exist equally along both sides of

leveler so weather seal (if equipped) will not

bind during dock leveler operation.

9. If gap (D) cannot be obtained equally at both sides

of leveler, grind or add material at the rear edge of

rear hinge frame angle (F) as needed.

10. Allow the dock leveler to rest fully on the shim

stacks. Check that a smooth and level transition

exists between the dock floor and the dock leveler

platform. Add or remove shims as necessary until

a smooth transition is obtained.

11. If leveler cannot be squared and/or made level as

instructed in steps 8 — 10, contact Poweramp
