The Vestil EH-68-30 is a hydraulic dock leveler designed for high-usage loading environments. It provides a simple push-button raise operation to elevate the deck, after which the lip automatically extends for secure loading and unloading. The unit incorporates a red emergency stop on the control box to enhance on-site safety, and its hydraulic design supports efficient cycle times in busy dock settings. When the trailer departs, the deck returns to the down position and releveles for cross-traffic in preparation for the next loading cycle.
Construction features include telescopic steel toe guards on both sides that sit flush with the platform edge, contributing to safer operation during manual positioning and pallet handling. The leveler is rated for a uniform capacity of 30,000 lb, with a service range above the dock specified at ±12 inches, enabling flexible adjustment to varying trailer heights. The configuration is supplied in a brown/yellow color scheme and represents a 74" wide by 86" long by 24" deep footprint, catering to mid- to large-dock footprints and compatible with standard dock frames that accommodate this size. The unit is designed for 460V 3-Phase electrical service, aligning with typical industrial warehouse infrastructure.
Practical considerations include the need for proper installation in a compatible pit and adherence to factory capabilities for higher capacities up to 80,000 lb if required. The EH-68-30 is provided as an individual unit, with packaging designed for single-unit delivery and installation. Operators should plan for routine inspection of hydraulic lines and emergency-stop functionality to maintain reliable performance in demanding loading operations.
