Features & Specifications

Key Features

  • Total hydraulic operation from a NEMA 4X single push-button control station, with sequenced deck and lip operation
  • Velocity fuse limits free-fall of a loaded platform to within 3″ (76 mm) if a truck departs early
  • At least six heavy-duty U-beams welded under the deck at dynamic impact points prevent “dishing”
  • Deck flexes up to 4″ (102 mm) under load for full-width lip contact; the fixed rear hinge stays flush with the floor
  • Full-range metal toe guards in safety yellow (ANSI Z535.1) and stationary side toe guards with high-visibility OSHA striping
  • Self-bleeding inverted deck cylinder reduces internal corrosion; maintenance strut supports deck and lip for servicing
