Blue Giant HU6606-35 Hydraulic Dock Leveler is a high-performance loading-dock mechanism designed to bridge gaps between trailers and docks with the push of a button. This 6'6" by 6' hydraulic unit provides a nominal 35,000 lb static capacity, making it suitable for varying trailer heights and frequent vehicle traffic in distribution and manufacturing environments. The design emphasizes usability and longevity, featuring a self-contained, vertically mounted hydraulic deck system and a 16" lip with a beveled leading edge for smooth entry and exit. A fixed rear hinge and 4" lateral ramp flex help accommodate non-level trailer beds, reducing wear and operator effort during loading and unloading cycles.
Constructed with high-tensile steel deck and lip and reinforced with a minimum of six high-tensile solid steel U-beam members, the leveler is engineered for rugged duty. The unit includes a compact, independent lip control option and a single push-button SP1 control station, which operates via a constant-pressure UP switch. The control station is rated for harsh environments (NEMA4X/IP65) and its compact dimensions are designed for easy integration into existing dock configurations. A velocity fuse provides fall-safety, and the deck is self-purging during operation, helping maintain performance and reducing downtime.
Ideal use scenarios include frequent heavy palletized goods, brick-and-mortar distribution centers, and facilities requiring reliable, single-action control with attention to safety at the loading dock. The setup specifies a self-contained 1 HP power pack mounted under the deck (voltage is user-specified) and standard laminated bumpers matched to width; 6' and 6'6" widths receive dual DB411 bumpers while 7' wide configurations use DB411WB bumpers. When selecting this leveler, verify dock height compatibility, lip length, and power requirements to ensure proper integration with the facility’s docking system.
