INSTALLATION
NOTE: Overall length of lifting chain and bracket
(A) must be kept to a minimum to prevent
interference between the lifting equipment
and and the building ceiling or door as the
dock leveler is lowered into the pit.
IMPORTANT
Installation of VS levelers from inside is
recommended due to combined height of leveler
and proper lifting equipment may be greater than
outside door height.
Maintenance props in lowered location during installation and service.
1. Remove any control panel, bumpers or pelletizing
that may be banded to the dock leveler. Do not
remove banding on hoist cylinder or storage prop
at this time.
2. Make sure the mounting hardware of lifting
bracket(s) (A) is snug. The brackets should pivot
relatively freely on the mounting cap screw.
DO NOT over tighten.
3. Attach lifting chain to lifting bracket(s) (A) and to
a lifting device (i.e., hoist or fork truck) having the
appropriate lifting capacity and reach.
