Poweramp VS VERTICAL SPECIALTY 4.2009 - Manual (Page 12)

INSTALLATION
1. Remove any control panel, bumpers or palletizing
that may be banded to the frame of the dock
leveler. Do not remove banding on hoist cylinder
or storage prop at this time.
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.
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.
4. Remove any shipping pallets that are attached to
the leveler before beginning installation into the
pit.
