Blue Giant HU6008-35 Hydraulic Dock Leveler is a high-performance loading-dock solution designed to bridge the gap between a dock and trailer bed with the push of a button. Its hydraulic deck and lip cylinders streamline operation and reduce maintenance compared with mechanical units, contributing to lower owning costs over time. The unit features a robust construction designed for frequent use in industrial environments and is equipped with safety and control components intended to support reliable, repeatable cycle performance at the dock.
Construction highlights include a heavy-duty deck supported by a minimum of six high-tensile solid steel U-beam members and a high-tensile steel deck and lip. The 16-inch lip, with a beveled leading edge, provides a smooth transition from dock to trailer bed, while a fixed rear hinge with 4-inch lateral ramp flex helps accommodate non-level trailer beds. A self-contained, tuned hydraulic power pack is mounted under the deck, and the entire system is designed around a single-push-button control station for positive, ergonomic operation. Safety features such as a velocity fuse fall-safe and toe guards finished in safety yellow are standard to help prevent unintended movements and protect personnel during operation.
This model delivers a 6' x 8' deck with a static capacity of 35,000 lbs and includes compatibility with the independent lip control option (Blue Genius Touch Control Panel required) for quicker cycle times and energy efficiency. The product ships as a complete unit with the specified package configuration and is suitable for industrial facilities seeking a durable, hydraulically driven dock leveler that supports a wide operating range relative to dock level.
