E10 1.3.1 Field Tests for Dock Leveling Equipment

1. Roll-over Tests - Move roll-over load of 20,000 pounds (9,072 kg) over the dock leveler between the bed of a freight carrier and the building loading dock surface for ten cycles.  With the ramp extension retracted and the ramp platform leveled with the building loading dock surface, run a 20,000 pound (9,072 kg) roll-over load over the ramp in various directions for 20 cycles. No permanent deformation or hydraulic fluid leakage must occur subsequent to examination after these tests.
2. Drop Tests - Twice, drop test the dock leveler at the indicated rated capacity as follows:  With the load on the platform and the load resting on a vehicle carrier bed not less than 10 inches (254 mm) above loading dock surface, pull the carrier or pull away from the lip, leaving the loading ramp unsupported.  The measured vertical drop of the dock leveler taken at the point where the lip rests on the vehicle carrier must not exceed 4 inches (102 mm) during each of the drop tests.  Inspect the loading ramp after each drop and ensure no damage or distortion to the mechanical, electrical, or structural components.  There must be no leakage from the hydraulic system.
3. Acceptance Tests - Perform an acceptance test in the presence of the dock leveler manufacturer and the Contracting Officer subsequent to the roll-over load and drop tests.  Conduct operation of the equipment through all of its motions and specified checks as follows: (a) extend lip to rest on a variety of freight carriers with beds up to 12 inches (305 mm) above and below deck level; (b) test 102 mm (4 inches) drop limitation with 7,000 pound (3,175 kg) load on ramp, evenly distributed; (c)test level compensation with the ramp, loaded with a minimum of 7,000 pounds (3,175 kg); and (d) test proper compensation (float) for various compression of counter-springs, with ramp loaded and unloaded.
