INSTALLATION
Prepare Pit
Before lowering the dock leveler into the pit, the
following must be performed:
1. Remove all debris from the pit and sweep the pit
clean.
2. Check the entire dock leveler pit for proper
construction according to approved/certified pit
drawings. Make sure pit is square by making the
following measurements:
• Measure pit width distance (A) at both front
and rear of pit.
• Measure dock floor-to-pit floor distance (B) at
all four corners.
• Measure pit length distance (C) at both sides.
• Measure corner-to-corner (criss-cross)
distance (D) at both sides. Take measurements
at dock floor level and at pit floor level.
If any measurement is off by more than 1/8 in.
(3.18 mm), contact Poweramp Technical Services
before proceeding.
3. Make sure the field junction box for the dock
leveler (E) is at the correct location per pit
diagrams.

IMPORTANT
DO NOT remove the shipping bands around the
dock leveler lip until instructed to to so.
Post safety warnings and barricade the work area
at dock level and ground level to prevent
unauthorized use of the dock leveler before
installation has been completed.
Failure to follow the installation instructions can
result in damage to dock leveler, the facilities,
and/or serious personal injury or death.
Only trained installation professionals with the
