Vestil WL-100-12-78 Steel Premium Truck Scissor Dock Lift is designed to bridge semi-trailer trailers when a permanent loading dock isn’t available. With a 12,000 lb. uniform capacity and a 62-inch overall frame width, this scissor lift provides a stable, elevated loading surface to facilitate safe transfer of goods between dock level and trailer bed. The heavy-gauge steel deck features a diamond plate surface to help reduce slippage during loading and unloading operations, contributing to improved grip under varying load conditions.
Constructed with safety-focused features, the unit incorporates safety velocity fuses on the hydraulic cylinders to reduce the risk of uncontrolled descent if a hydraulic line fails, and an upper travel limit switch to cut power when the maximum raised height is reached. The lifting assembly is powered by a standard external 6.5 HP, 460V, 3-phase, 60 Hz motor, with pre-wired control hardware including a magnetic starter and overload relay housed in a pre-wired control box. A 20-foot coil cord provides flexible control access so operators can stay at a safe distance from the elevated platform during operation. High-visibility yellow removable handrails with fixed toe boards, along with beveled toe-guards and electric toe-guards around the platform perimeter, help define the work area and reduce trip hazards.
This unit is suited for facilities that require occasional truck docking where a permanent dock is not feasible, supporting efficient loading and unloading across a variety of semi-trailer configurations. When planning installation, note that the standard external motor location can be up to 8 feet away from the lift, which can influence electrical routing and enclosure considerations. Package configuration is listed as one unit per package, and the overall footprint and mounting requirements should be validated against on-site dimensions to ensure safe operation and proper clearance.
