INSTALLATION
Prepare Pit
1. Before lowering the dock leveler into the pit, the
following must be performed:
2. Remove all debris from the pit and sweep the pit
clean.
3. Check the entire dock leveler pit for proper
construction according to approved/certified pit
drawings. Make sure pit is square by making the
following measurements:
• Measure pit width distance (A) at both front and
rear of pit.
• Measure dock floor-to-pit floor distance (B) at all
four corners.
• Measure pit length distance (C) at both sides.
• Measure corner-to-corner (criss-cross) distance
(D) at both sides. Take measurements at dock
floor level and at pit floor level.
4. If any measurement is off by more than 1/8 in.
(3.18 mm), contact Poweramp Technical Services
