Description |
The Pentalock MFR32 Mechanical Vehicle Restraint
offers a rugged structural design, simple
operation and maximum product value. The loading
dock is one of the most hazardous areas of any
facility. Serious loading dock accidents can
result from such things as premature truck
departure, trailer creep and collapsing landing
gear. Pentalift’s MFR32 offers a practical
solution to loading dock safety concerns.
Construction features, such as the heavy-duty
steel guard and solid steel restraining arms
ensure a long, reliable life.
The restraint is designed to provide automatic
vertical compensation to accommodate the
movement of the trailer’s suspension during
loading/unloading. Gas shock activation and
positive lock-down mechanism make the MFR32 a
reliable and easy to use product. The simple
operation promotes continued use of the
restraint by the dock attendant. Its fully
mechanical design makes the restraint easy to
both install and maintain. Additionally, this
equipment offers the flexibility to relocate the
MFR32 if necessary. |
| Operation |
| When not in use, the restraint is held in the lowered position by the positive lock-down mechanism. Once the truck/trailer is positioned, the operator uses the “T” handled operating bar to release the lock-down. The restraining arm, rises creating a barrier for the truck’s/trailer’s ICC bumper. If no ICC bumper is present or it cannot be restrained, the operator returns the unit to the stored position and manually chocks the vehicle’s wheels. The restraint "floats" over the entire operation range in relation to the movement of the truck’s/trailer’s suspension. When loading /unloading is complete, the operator uses the “T” handled operating bar to return the restraint to the lowered position. |
