DL Series Mechanical Edge-of-Dock

The DLM “DL” series edge-of-dock leveler mounts to the exterior dock face providing a simple and economical alternative to “portable plates” or “pit style” levelers. The DL is ideal for the motor freight industry or those companies with standardized trailer bed heights.

Each DL series model meets or exceeds as industry recommended working range of +/-3″ and a maximum operating range of +/-5″ above or below the dock. To operate the unit, you simply position the DL lifting hook into the lip recess and pull up. By pushing the lifting hook forward as the leveler descends onto the truck bed allows the release and separation of the lifting hook.
