MAINTENANCE

Service Dock Leveler Safely

When maintenance is to be performed on the dock

leveler, First install the SAFETY bolt in the storage

prop. Second support the platform with maintenance

props (D). Caution: The lip may will fold down after

the platform has rested on the maintenance prop.

Whenever servicing the dock leveler, lock the

electrical power disconnect in the OFF position. Use

only an OSHA approved lockout device* (B) and

tagout device (A).

Only the person servicing the equipment should have

the capability to remove the lockout devices. The

tagout devices* must inform that repairs are in

process and clearly state who is responsible for the

lockout condition.

* Refer to OSHA regulation 1910.147.

When service under the dock leveler is required,

always lock all electrical disconnects in the OFF

position after raising the platform and engaging the

maintenance prop. Failure to do this may result in

serious personal injury or death.

Always post safety warnings and barricade the

work area at dock level and ground level to prevent

unauthorized use of the dock leveler before

maintenance is complete. Failure to do this may

result in serious personal injury or death.

Always stand clear of the dock leveler lip when

working in front of the dock leveler.

The maintenance prop MUST be in the service

position when working under the dock leveler. For

maximum protection, use an OSHA approved

locking device to lock the maintenance prop in the

service position. Only the person servicing the

equipment should have the key to unlock the

maintenance prop.

Unless the dock leveler is equipped with a tethered

remote, two people are required to engage the

maintenance prop: one person to operate the unit,

the other person to engage the maintenance prop.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in

serious personal injury or death.
