The Vestil PP-2066 Edge-O-Dock Hand Pump Leveler is a dock-edge attachment designed to bridge the gap between a loading dock and trailer bed. It permanently mounts to the face of the dock and uses a hand-pump hydraulic system to raise and lower the deck, allowing the lip to extend onto the trailer bed for a stable transfer point. When the trailer departs, the lip retracts behind the dock face, eliminating the need for a concrete recess in the dock structure. This model emphasizes a compact footprint with a 66 inch ramp width and a 29 inch ramp length, aligning with typical dock configurations where a steel dock edge is present to support mounting.
Constructed from solid steel, the unit features a tread plate design that provides a positive, non-slip gripping surface for pedestrians and equipment during alignment and transfer operations. The Edge-O-Dock operates through a manual hydraulic hand pump, and the system is supplied with the necessary components for installation and operation, including the hand pump, mounting hardware, cylinder, hydraulic lines, and oil. Optimal installation requires a continuous weld along the top and sides of the mounting plate and bolting the plate to the dock face via the provided anchor holes; a steel dock edge, approach ramp, or approach plate is also recommended to ensure proper alignment and load transfer.
This particular configuration lists a uniform capacity of 20,000 lb and a service range above the dock of 5 inches, making it suitable for standard forklift and palletizable loads where a reliable, adjustable interface is needed between dock and trailer. The product is sold with the standard accessories and is intended for installation at docks that can accommodate the mounting and hydraulic assembly as described; ensure compatibility with your dock face, clearance for the lip, and adherence to the specified installation guidance for safe operation.
