Description


Streamlined design for ease and durability: Our mechanical pit leveler boasts a hassle-free installation with pit height adjusters that eliminate the need for shimming. The robust design ensures smooth building-to-truck transitions and ergonomic features, including an easy release chain, make maintenance a breeze. Simplify your loading process with our efficient, user-friendly levelers.

Features


- Installers are never under the pit and stay safe

- Safety brace is easy to deploy

- Minimal bumps or gaps on deck/lip reduce trip hazards for workers

- Proprietary powder coat formulation on deck and lip surfaces is textured to provide enhanced traction and non-slip protection

- Heavy duty multi-lug construction of the lip hinge. It also helps sheds debris instead of trapping/grinding it between the lip/deck junction that can cause fatigue and maintenance issues. The lug construction also allows for easy lubrication of the hinge. Lip hinge pin floats to help prevent binding damage and allow easy removal

- Deck hinge is fully supported across the entire width of the deck, which spreads the load across the width of the deck instead of concentrating the load on just a few hinge points. This reduces load fatigue and contributes to long term durability

- Deck uses robust C-channel beams and heavy duty construction to withstand harsh dock punishment

- Minimal maintenance required due to lack of deck transition angle

- Durable powder coat provides an extremely durable finish, better corrosion protection and adhesion compared to wet paint

- Complies with ANSI MH30.1-2022 that includes rigorous load testing requirements

- Fast install with pit height adjusters that require no shimming in rear of pit

- New levelers ship with 4 steel fork loops bolted to the deck, which makes lifting from a truck easy and stable. The loops help with forklift placement into a pit from inside or outside the building, and helps to minimize levelers sliding while stacked on top of each othe

- Lifter arm is mounted to the rear of the frame instead of sitting on the pit floor. No shimming and welding under the lifter arm on pit floor needed
