Approach plate

1.Remove all material and protrusions from the face of dock.

2.In installations where cartons or pallets are slid along the building floor into the truck, the approach plate must be recessed into a groove in the floor.

3.To install the groove, locate and mark the center of the dock where ramp is to be mounted. Make a centered chalk line 1/2 inch longer than ramp plate, 12 inches back from the face of the dock.

4.Using a SKIL ROTO Hammer No. 736, or similar tool, cut a groove 3/8" deep x 2" wide x ramp length plus 1/2 inch on the outside of the line. (The groove will start 10" from the dock face and end 12" from dock face.)

5.Position the beveled and turned-down edge of approach plate in the groove with opposite edge ` flush with the dock edge.

6.Anchor the plate to floor with four 5/8" x 5" lag bolts. Do not tighten yet.

7.Center the mounting plate of leveler against the approach plate anchored to floor. Tack weld the mounting plate in place.

8.Continuously weld across the top. Chip and grind as required.

9.Drill holes into the dock the through the holes in the mounting plate. Depending on the cement condition, up to 8 may be required.

10.Install anchors and bolts. Do not tighten.

11.Install bumper blocks on each side of ramp mounting plate. Weld the top of the bumper blocks to the ramp plate, and the side of the bumper blocks to the ramp mounting the plate. Install two anchors on each side of bumper blocks.
