Dock Edge Construction
The procedure for the installation of the Edge-O-Dock dockleveler varies with the dock edge construction and the
height differential. The recommended dock edge for installing an Edge-O-Dock unit is a well anchored six inch channel. With
a six inch channel embedded in to the dock edge, the installer can weld the ramp and bumper blocks securely into position.
The ramp and blocks cannot be welded into position if the dock edge steel is less than six inches. For installations with less
than six inches of steel edging a combination of anchor bolts and welding is required. If the dock has no steel edging, a steel
plate must be anchored to the floor to provide a surface to weld the ramp to in order to maintain the capacity of the leveler.
Failure to follow the proper installation procedure will decrease capacity of dockleveler.

Linkage Installation Instructions
FOR MECHANICAL EDGE-O-DOCK
1.) Remove the cotter pin from the clevis pin.
2.) Remove the clevis pin from the linkage arms.
3.) Move the lip plate down until the hole in the mounting bracket is
aligned with the holes in the link arms.
4.) Insert the clevis pin through the aligned holes and fasten with the
cotter pin.
Height Differential
The optimum dock height in most cases is 50". On dock heights significantly different than 50", ramps and ramp
support angles as shown below must be employed.
