DESCRIPTION
The Super-Duty AIRDOCK Series of air-powered dock levelers is the smart choice for the most demanding loading docks to receive the
absolute best long term return on investment available. The patented lifting system utilizes a revolutionary Protected Single-Chamber
balanced air bag and Pull-Action design reduces parts and friction while allowing easy inspection and access to the deck assembly. The
60,000-pound capacity rating is higher than any previous industry offering in an air-powered leveler, a true testament to the superior design.
The self-contained design provides easy handling & installation with a fully protected bag and a lift system that does not contact the floor of
the pit. Nominal platform sizes available include 6, 6.5 & 7 feet wide x 6, 8 & 10 feet long. Standard features include full operating range
telescoping side guards, night security locks, integral maintenance supports, safety black & yellow side skirt labels, and two heavy-duty dock
bumpers.
OPERATION
The operator presses the control button until the deck is fully raised. Releasing the button activates the Auto-Descent Lip system that
extends the lip as the deck lowers placing it smoothly onto the truck bed. The leveler will float up and down and side to side with the truck
during loading to maintain lip contact at all times. To store the dock leveler, the operator presses the control button that activates the lift system
allowing the lip to automatically retract to a pendant position, releasing the button deactivates the air power to store the leveler in a fully
supported position level with the building floor. The standard 16" lip will extend out 11" beyond a 4" bumper and engage a truck 12" above
and below building floor level. Note: Longer lip options & 6’ long models have reduced above dock service range.
CONSTRUCTION
Unitized platform structure with dual side 33% beam to deck weld pattern and continuous welds at the beams to header plate and lugs for
maximum strength. The deck plate, lip plate and beams are constructed from high-tensile steel and safety tread top running surface. The deck
support structure includes wide flange style beams and welded side guards that provide additional platform strength. The frame has four
upright, two forward supports and a fixed continuous smooth transition rear hinge to eliminate pinch, trip or impact point. A security lock
system is provided to prevent illegal building entry when the overhead door is closed. Full width zinc plated rear hinge rod and hard chrome
plated front hinge rod are both factory coated with anti-seize lubricant. A single NEMA 4 push-button control operates the 120-Volt fan motor.
