Size Variety: Available in standard widths of 6', 6'6", and 7', as well as standard lengths of 6', 8', and 10', providing flexibility to suit your specific needs.

MEDLF Mechanical EOD Leveler

The MEDLF Mechanical EOD Levelers are designed for cost-effective solutions, ideal for a consistent fleet of trucks with similar bed heights. These units typically mount to the dock's face and can be placed in a small recessed pit. They serve as a light-duty, budget-friendly alternative to full-size in-pit dock levelers, making them perfect for situations where a pit can't be used or as a retrofit option.

The MEDLFMechanical EOD Leveler is best suited for environments with minimal height difference between the trailer bed and dock, with installation on the dock face. Operating this leveler is a straightforward two-step process, thanks to the "lift-free" handle that positions the unit in the trailer.

Key Features of the MEDLF Mechanical EOD Leveler

Multiple Width Options: Available in 66", 72", 78", and 84" standard operable widths, ensuring compatibility with various truck sizes.
Diverse Capacities: Choose from capacities of 20K, 25K, 30K, and 35K CIR (Comparative Industry Rating) to accommodate different load requirements.
Structural Durability: Cold-rolled steel hinge pins, secondary steel gussets, and high-strength 55,000 psi min. yield steel safety tread plate in the leveler lip and deck ensure long-lasting performance.
Easy "Lift-Free" Operation: A simple two-step pull/push process with a lift-free handle makes operating the leveler effortless and safe for dock attendants.
Torsion Spring Activation: The roller bearing lift mechanism and torsion spring activation eliminate the need for bending, pushing, or lifting during operation.
Automatic Return: Once the trailer departs, the leveler automatically returns to the stored position, requiring no manual assistance. If the trailer remains at the dock, a simple pull/push motion activates the unit until the lip clears the trailer, allowing it to be put into the stored position with ease.

Hydraulic Dock Levelers

The Hydraulic Dock Levelers are the epitome of push-button convenience, offering smooth and consistent operation. These levelers feature fully powered raise and lip extension functions through hydraulic cylinders, ensuring efficiency and ease of use.

The Hydraulic Dock Leveler series feature two models: The Autodok® H Series Hydraulic Leveler and the HP Hydraulic Leveler. Both models offer superior safety features, as they are equipped with in-line velocity fuses to prevent free fall during truck pull-out scenarios. Built with a robust structural steel frame and a full-width rear hinge, these dock levelers are engineered for strength and durability.
