OPERATION

The operator releases the holdown at the rear of the platform until the deck is raised and stopped. The operator then walks forward on the platform causing it to lower and extend the lip until it contacts the bed of the truck. The standard 16” long lip will extend out and engage a truck bed 12” above and below floor level.

CONSTRUCTION

The platform is a unitized structure with 33% dual side beam to deck weld pattern and continuous welds at the header plate and hinge tubes for superior strength. The deck plate, lip plate and beam sections are constructed of minimum 55,000 PSI yield material.

The fixed rear hinge provides 4” of side-to-side tilt with no pinch point. The frame has a minimum of five solid steel rear supports, five hinge connections and a full width rear hinge rod. The open design frame provides for simple pit cleaning and the security lock system prevents illegal entry when the door is closed. The front and rear hinge rods are constructed of SAE 1045 superior shaft and are factory coated with anti-seize lubricant.
