Vestil RR-66-35 is a pit-mounted mechanical dock leveler designed to facilitate trailer loading and unloading at loading docks. The unit features a heavy-duty diamond plate deck and a steel understructure, with a 35,000 lb uniform capacity suitable for many mid-to-large dock operations. A spring-operated, mechanical pull-chain control enables smooth operation, reducing maintenance requirements while allowing quick adjustments to the leveler’s position during dock work. The lip extends 16 inches, and the leveler provides a service range that covers 12 inches above and below the dock surface, increasing trailer compatibility across varying dock heights. Telescopic side-mounted toe guards extend across the full service range, helping to protect personnel and equipment as the leveler moves through its range of motion. The assembly includes two laminated bumpers for additional impact protection.
Designed to meet applicable standards, this dock leveler references compliance with CS 202-56, OSHA, and ANSI MH14.5, providing a baseline for safe, standardized operation within facilities that require recognized safety and performance criteria. The unit’s construction uses a 1/4-inch checkered plate deck, contributing to durability and providing a traction-enhancing surface under loading conditions. Installed as a pit-mounted solution, it integrates with the surrounding dock structure to create a seamless loading bay, while the mechanical pull-chain system offers intuitive control for operators.
This model is suited for facilities needing a robust, lower-maintenance dock leveler with substantial reach and loading range. When sizing, consider the 74-inch wide by 62-inch long by 24-inch deep overall footprint and the 35,000-pound capacity as key determinants of compatibility with trailer fleets and dock platform configurations. Suitable for new installations or retrofits where a pit installation is feasible, ensuring proper alignment with the dock edge and coupling to the pit dimensions.
Notes: While the product data confirms a 35,000 lb uniform capacity and pit-mounted design, confirm exact pit dimensions, mounting hardware, and any local code requirements before purchase. Also verify that the model’s service range and lip length meet your specific trailer and dock-height needs.
