INTRODUCTION

Component Identification

A — Lip Plate

B —Center Plate

C — Safety Prop

D — Powerpack (Motor/Pump/Reservoir)

E — Hinge Area

F — Lip Cylinder

G — Main Hoist Cylinder

H — Bumper Blocks (2 used)

J —Raise Button

The HED Edge-of-Dock leveler uses hydraulic pressure

and single push-button operation for ease of use.

Platform (B) is raised by pushing and holding the

RAISE button (J). This activates an electric motor (D)

which, in turn, drives a hydraulic pump. The hydraulic

pump forces oil into the platform cylinder (G), causing

the platform to rise. Hold (J) until lip fully extends.

Releasing the raise button will allow the platform to

float down to the bed of the truck trailer bed. The lip

will stay extended until the platform reaches the full

below dock position.

Pressing the raise button will return the platform and

lip to the stored position.
