OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• The Mechanical Edge-of-Dock (EOD) Leveler is intended
to be used as a bridge located between a loading dock
oor surface and the rear deck upper surface of a vehicle.
• The EOD Leveler upper deck plate complete with a
hinged, vertically hanging lip plate is located ush with
the oor surface and is permanently mounted on the outer
edge of the loading dock.
• The rear deck surface of a vehicle is parked and blocked
in place against the dock bumpers that are integral com-
ponents of the EOD Leveler, in working alignment with the
EOD Leveler. An EOD Leveler used in conjunction with
a Vehicle Restraint are ideal for this application. Consult
your local Dealer/Distributor.
• The EOD Leveler is operated by pulling back on the com-
fort grip handle. The hinged lip plate raises to a horizontal
position as the deck is rotated up into a vertical position.
As the operator pushes the comfort grip handle forward,
rotating the deck forward into a horizontal position, the lip
moves forward horizontally until the underside comes to
rest on the deck of the vehicle.
• A bridge is now formed that is supported at the building
end by the dock oor and at the vehicle end by the vehicle
deck.
• The EOD must now be walked to insure the kicker bar is
disengaged.
• No other means of support is provided when in this posi-
tion.
•The EOD Leveler is restored to its original stored position
by the operator before the vehicle is allowed to depart.
Do not install this leveler, operate and/or service un-
less you have been trained and authorized to do so.
Do not install, operate and/or service this leveler until
you have read and understood all of the safety infor-
mation and instructions contained herein and on the
leveler.
Do not operate this leveler until you have checked its
condition. Report the need for leveler repairs to your
supervisor immediately and do not operate leveler un-
til repairs are made. Neglect may cause a minor repair
to become a major service problem and cause the lev-
eler to become unsafe.
Never try to lift or move any part of the Dock Leveler
without using the comfort grip handle.
Keep hands and feet clear of dock leveler pinch points
at all times. Never use hands to lift dock ramp and/or
lip onto vehicle or to store dock leveler.
Do not drive on leveler unless lip is securely on vehi-
cle bed and has a minimum of 4” (100mm) projection
on vehicle bed.
Do not exceed 3 mph when driving over dock leveler.
Do not drive over edges of the leveler and / or dock
bumper blocks (bumpers blocks are not structural).
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
OPERATION (CONTACT SUPERVISOR FOR ASSISTANCE)
2. The dock operator ensures the vehicle is blocked
securely (using either a vehicle restraint and/or wheel
chocks) to prevent forward creep or unexpected
departure.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Do not attempt to operate the EOD leveler without
using the comfort grip handle.
4. The operator pushes the comfort grip operating
handle forward to rotate the deck plate back towards its
original position.
5. During this step, the lip plate will remain horizontal and
extend until it comes to rest on the transport vehicle oor.
Remove the comfort grip handle, before loading
and/or unloading cargo.
6. With the lip plate in full contact with the vehicle
load bed, the loading/unloading operation can be
completed.
8. The operator raises the deck, by pulling back on the
comfort grip handle, only enough to release the lip from
the surface of the transporter vehicle load bed. When
the lip pivots downward to a pendant position, the unit is
allowed to return to stored position.
9. The operator releases the vehicle restraint or
removes the wheel chocks to allow the vehicle to
depart. The operator then indicates to the vehicle driver
that it is safe to depart.
7. When trafc across the dock leveler has ceased
the operator must return the EOD Leveler to its stored
position.
!WARNING
IMPORTANT
The lip plate must overlap the transporter vehicle
load bed by a minimum of 4” (100mm) full width.
!WARNING
The vehicle should never be allowed to depart
with the lip plate resting on the load bed.
!WARNING
10. The comfort grip handle is then returned to the
stored position. The dock is once again available for
use.
