Instruction Manual

If the dockleveler lip did not extend, or extended too early, the cable weight may need
adjusting. The cable weight is located underneath the dockleveler directly behind
the valve block. As the platform raises, the cable moves the valve lever. When the
cable force exceeds the force necessary to shift the valve spool, the spool shifts
causing the oil to flow to the lip cylinder. The factory setting will result in the lip
extending with approximately 1" of travel left in the hoist cylinder. Sliding the weight
up the cable will result in the lip extending earlier. Be sure to tighten the weight
down securely to the cable to avoid the weight from sliding on the cable.

ALLEN WRENCH ADJUSTMENT
LOGIC BLOCK
If the dockleveler did not lower, it is possible that the speed control requires adjust-
ment. The speed control is located in the logic block. It is an allen wrench adjust-
ment located in the casting directly behind the upper front hose connection. Clock-
wise adjustments will slow the lowering speed of the dockleveler. To avoid stops
while the dockleveler is lowering, the speed of the dockleveler should be decreased.
