Vestil EH-65-35 is an electric hydraulic dock leveler designed for high-activity dock environments. This unit provides a reliable means to bridge the gap between your dock and trailer by using a simple push-button raise operation to lift the deck, with the lip extending automatically at full height to facilitate loading and unloading. Once the operator releases the button, the deck lowers and rests on the trailer, and when a truck departs, the leveler returns to the full-down position and trips its limit switch to reset for cross-traffic operation. A red emergency stop in the control box offers a direct means to halt operation for safety or service needs. The leveler comes with telescopic steel toe guards on both sides flush with the platform edge, enhancing side protection during busy cycles, and it includes laminated bumpers for trailer contact reinforcement.
This model specifies a uniform capacity of 35,000 pounds with a service range above the dock of 12 inches, supporting a variety of loading profiles while maintaining a stable interface with standard dock heights. The unit is configured for 460V 3-phase electrical service, aligning with heavy-use facilities that require robust, continuous operation. The assembly is designed to be used in environments where frequent trailer transfers occur, and the hydraulic actuation reduces manual effort, contributing to efficient material handling workflows. For projects needing greater capacity, Vestil notes higher uniform ratings are available up to 80,000 pounds directly from the factory, so capacity planning can scale with demand.
When selecting or planning your installation, verify compatibility with your dock dimensions and electrical supply.
