The RHJ-5000 Jumbo™ is specifically designed for demanding logistics environments requiring full-width loading without obstruction. Thanks to its extra-wide platform (up to 102 inches), it allows full access to the trailer, facilitating the handling of large or non-standard loads and significantly increasing productivity.

Equipped with the Smooth Transition Dok System® technology, this leveller greatly reduces shock and vibration ("dock shock"), thus improving operator comfort, safety and protection of goods and equipment.

Its reinforced structural design, including four-sided box construction and additional beams, provides exceptional strength and controlled flexibility, allowing the deck to fit naturally to the trailer floor.

On the safety side, the RHJ-5000 incorporates several advanced features:

  • Safe-T-Lip® : Fall protection when the dock is open
  • Safe-T-Strut™ : secure support during maintenance operations
  • Speed Fuse (Velocity Fuse): Free Fall Protection
  • Self-flexible design : maintains constant contact with the trailer

In addition to its performance, this leveler reduces operating costs through limited maintenance and increased durability, making it a premium choice for modern distribution centers

Lower cost of ownership

Its unique structural design allows it to withstand the extreme demands of warehouses, reducing repair and maintenance costs, while increasing productivity and product life.

  • The lifetime ownership costs of a hydraulic dock leveller are significantly lower than those of a mechanical leveller, which has an average maintenance cost of 6 times higher.
  • The formed front lintel (connection between the tray and the leveler flange) completes the four-sided rectangular box construction and includes interlocking and welded stringers to create a stronger bond, increase overall strength, and help limit maintenance-related downtime issues.
  • Integral steel DokSaver™ bumpers minimize maintenance and interference during loading/unloading.
  • The biodegradable fluid is environmentally friendly and performs better than traditional industrial fluids.
  • The optional maintenance pendant socket helps minimize risk and reduce waste while maximizing productivity when maintaining hydraulic dock levelers. This socket makes it possible to compensate for the labour shortage by requiring only one technician instead of two for maintenance.
Soft® transition Dok® system

Every year, $2.8 billion is lost due to absenteeism in manufacturing and production alone. Help reduce these costs by preventing chronic and acute injuries due to body vibration (Dock Shock); choose a leveller equipped with the Smooth Transition Dok System®.

  • The Two-Point Crown Control system reinforces the front hinge (between the leveling plate and the rim) in two places to eliminate the "bumpy" feeling experienced with traditional levelers with increased crown reinforcement.
  • The constant radius rear hinge ensures a regular 1/3" gap between the warehouse floor and the leveling tray, greatly reducing the gap that causes painful bumps and turns when passing.
  • The extended lip chamfer comes standard with an extended length of 3 inches (compared to 1/3 inch for the traditional leveler) which ensures a smoother transition between the edge and the floor of the trailer, helping to reduce body impact.
  • The beam construction includes two additional I-beams under the leveler platen, which increases strength and flexibility, allowing the leveler to flex under its own weight.
Industry-leading security

The importance of safety on loading docks cannot be underestimated. From loading/unloading to planned maintenance, safety must be a priority in many ways.

  • The self-flexing deck uses L-shaped stringers to increase its strength and allow it to flex under its own weight. Thanks to this structural design, the leveller remains in constant contact with the trailer bed, even after the forklift has been removed from the bed.
  • The Safe-T-Strut ™ system provides increased safety during maintenance with a central through-the-flange design that keeps the strut in place throughout the leveler's operating range; Resistant to accidental impact from a 10,000 lb forklift at 4 mph.

Visibility from inside the building tells everyone that maintenance work is underway and helps prevent accidental tripping, ensuring the safety of personnel during scheduled maintenance operations.

  • Safe-T-Lip® helps protect empty deposit areas, while its split edge design positions the barrier securely for unobstructed access to end-loads.
  • Non-adjustable speed fuse helps stop the rapid lowering of the leveler to less than 76 mm (3 inches) with a large load on the platform; Offering ultimate protection against free falls.
Unparalleled end-loading access

Its unique structural design helps increase strength and productivity while eliminating interference from pit walls and bumpers for optimal access under the dock, across the width and height.

  • Certified for a total of five capacities to the ANSI MH30.1 performance test standard, the 102" (2.59 m) wide leveling platform, with its one-piece platform, provides unobstructed full-width and height access to various loading configurations.
  • The four-sided rectangular box construction includes interlocking and welded rails (front rail formed) to create a stronger bond, increase overall strength, and help limit maintenance-related downtime issues.
  • The beam construction includes two additional I-beams under the leveler platen, which provides increased strength and superior flexibility, allowing the leveler to flex under its own weight.
  • The trailer stabilization system (STR-4200) is highly recommended for heavy loads. This system uses hydraulic cylinders to stabilize the horizontal and vertical movements of air-sprung trailers during loading and unloading operations.

    The ideal complement to the Smooth Transition Dok® system, the Dok-Lok® also helps to minimise jolts for operators, reduce the risk of back injuries and make the work easier for the elderly, while limiting wear and tear on other dockside equipment.
Warranty

The equipment is backed by comprehensive warranties, designed to ensure durability, performance and customer satisfaction over the long term.

  • Up to 20-year money-back warranty
    Based on the Dock Leveler Investment Guide, this warranty reflects the reliability and durability of the equipment.
  • 5 years on parts and 1 year on labor
    Covers components and repairs needed to ensure reliable use of the leveler.
  • 12-month limited customer satisfaction guarantee
    Satisfaction commitment with the possibility of reimbursement according to the applicable conditions.
