PLD Dock Lift

PLD Dock Lift – Convenient Dock Lifting

PLD Dock Scissor Lifts are stationary lifts with a low 6″ to 6 1/2″ profile and feature either a convenient onboard hydraulic power unit or a more robust remote power unit. PLD models offer two platform sizes with capacities ranging from 2,000 lbs. to 5,000 lbs., and over 55 1/2″ of vertical travel. PLD dock lifts are surface mounted, making them a flexible, reliable choice for common loading and unloading tasks. With a hinged approach ramp on one side and a throw-over bridge on the other, the PLD is well suited for pass-through dock applications of pallet jacks and hand dollies and is often found in the automotive, aerospace, and retail industries.

Durability and Quality

• Joints, the most critical wear points in the lift, feature chrome-plated, 100,000-psi, ultimate-strength pins for premium load strength and long life.
• Solid steel legs and added stiffeners provide stability and straight, repeatable roller tracking as the lift raises and lowers.
• A thick steel-reinforced platform minimizes deck deflection, maximizes load stability, and extends the life of the platform deck.

Simplicity

• Simple Up/Down pushbutton operation.
• Throw-over bridge conveniently covers transition gaps.
• The hinged approach ramp simplifies loading/offloading.

Safety

• Permanent handrails allow for the safe maneuvering of workers.
• Beveled platform sides protect workers’ feet and toes.
• Hydraulic velocity fuses completely stop lifts in the unlikely event of uncontrolled descent due to sudden hose rupture.
• The minimum 3:1 structural factor of safety makes these lifts the most structurally sound in the industry.
• Compliance with recognized standards:
  • ANSI MH29.1 – Safety Requirements for Industrial Scissor Lifts 
  • NFPA 70 – National Electric Code
  • ASTM-A36 – Structural Steel Standard
  • ANSI Z535 – Safety Labeling Requirements
  • AWS D.1 – Welding Standards
  • Applicable portions of OSHA 29CFR1910 – General Workplace Safety

Maintenance and Warranty

• On-board maintenance devices enable maintenance crews to safely and effectively block open the scissors during an inspection and routine maintenance.
• Maintenance-free bearings at pivot points require no lubrication.
• An efficient hydraulic power unit simplifies servicing.
• Double-wire braided Parker hydraulic hoses resist wear, abrasion, and leaks.
• Easy replacement of high-strength steel rollers minimizes downtime.
• We offer a 2-year warranty on all parts as a promise that you’ve purchased the industry’s most reliable lift.
