01 – Introduction
This manual is a guide for the correct and safe installation, use and maintenance of the RH11 and RH12 booms.
The application of the instructions in its content guarantees a long service life of the machine and compliance with the safety
rules prevents the most common accidents that may occur during work or maintenance.
The instructions in this manual cannot, by themselves, make the job safer and do not relieve the operator from compliance
with safety code, law, local or national guidelines or regulations.
The standard of service represented in this manual applies only to mobile levelers for loading and unloading trucks.
If the instruction and maintenance manual is lost, request another copy specific to the machine. It is absolutely necessary and
imperative that the manual always be with the machine so that it can be consulted at any time or if there is any doubt about its
use.
The manufacturer has no direct control over the operations, locations or maintenance of the machine. The operator is
responsible for following good safety and maintenance practices.
The operator is responsible for reading and understanding this manual before using the machine.
Using the machine with caution and with proper training protects the operator and the people who depend on his work.

correct functioning and a long life of the leveler largely depend on the preventive maintenance carried out.
Advanced maintenance should only be done by INKEMA Technical Service or personnel approved by them.
This maintenance must be carried out so that the product maintains the characteristics of safety and use that it had at the time
of installation.
Any modification, repair, or manipulation of the product that does not comply with these guidelines will void the two-year
warranty period and INKEMA's liability on the product will be automatically terminated.
Lubrication, painting and continuous monitoring are the best guarantee of good performance for many years.
The oil should contain agents that prevent foaming, oxidation and water absorption. If the winter temperatures are very low, the
oil must be thin and have a stable viscosity index at low temperatures.
Never mix different oils, as the new oil may have a different resistance to oxidation and affect the life of the original oil.
It is important to check the oil level every 6 months. The oil tank must be filled until it almost overflows through the closing cap
in the lowest possible position.
Hydraulic oil for levelers that are in cold stores must have specific properties for its use depending on the temperature to which it is
exposed. So, if this is the case, the manufacturer must be informed of the conditions in which the machine will work so that
it is equipped with a special oil.
Every six months, the lubrication points shown in the following diagram should be checked.

Check that the vehicle is perfectly immobilized and cannot move (stop the engine, apply the handbrake and chock the wheels).
To raise the ramp to the level of the loading surface, connect the maneuvering circuit by turning the switch colored red. At this time, the
green pilot light will turn on.
To raise the boom and open the lip, press and hold the lift button.
If you stop pressing the lift button, the ramp will gradually lower due to its own weight.
Raise the ramp until the lip begins to open. Once the lip is fully open, release the lift button.
Let the ramp descend gradually and lean on the loading surface of the truck.
Check that the lip remains pressed over the entire width, on the loading surface of the vehicle in a space that is NOT less than 130 mm.
The ramp will simply rest on the loading surface (truck). The hydraulic cylinders will NOT be blocked in order to allow the adaptation of
the ramp to the height of the loading surface (which will vary according to the variation of the suspensions of the truck).
Make sure the emergency stop is NOT activated and the ramp is powered.
VERY IMPORTANT: It is
strictly forbidden to carry out loading and unloading operations with the emergency stop activated, or when the ramp is not
electrically powered.
Do not, under any circumstances, exceed the rated maximum load limit. (See ramp nameplate).
Be careful not to lose the support of the ramp on the loading surface when the load is in transit. If this happens, press the emergency
stop immediately.
Trolleys must move carefully. The maximum traffic speed that has been calculated for the ramp is 10 km/hour.
Release the button and wait for the ramp to descend at a regular speed and rest with the closed lip on the front part of its frame.
Do not, under any circumstances, exceed the rated maximum load limit. (See ramp nameplate).
Before each manoeuvre, check that there is no one in the work area.
Check that the ramp is fully seated on the loading surface of the lorry, fitting the entire lip into an area of approximately 130mm
across the full width.
The sole function of the hydraulic unit is to perform the necessary movements in order to manipulate the dock ramp only. Never use
to support and/or lift the load.
Before raising the ramp, make sure that other equipment does not obstruct its movement (doors, etc.)
At the end of the operation, check that the lip is properly fitted in the correct position inside the ramp
closed.
03 – EC declaration
DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY
INKEMA SISTEMAS, SL declares under its sole responsibility that the electro-hydraulic
ramps:
Brand : INKEMA
Models : RH11 and RH12 of 6000 Kg (*) capacity
Year of manufacture: 2014
And they have been calculated and designed in accordance with the following European standards :
(*) If the capacity is different from 6000 kg, the corresponding CE certificate must be attached to this manual.
(*) Specify part code and description, as well as machine model, size and load.
(**) Specify the part code as well as the model, the dimensions of the machine and the dimension of the cylinder.
05 – Setup
With regard to the handling of the ramp, comply at all times with the law on the prevention of occupational risks, as well as the safety,
health and hygiene regulations at work.
The positioning of the ramp in the pit must be done with the help of a crane, forklift or similar device, using the hooks and to hoist it,
use chains, slings or similar with a loading capacity equal to or greater than the weight of the ramp.
At this point, unroll the electric cable and pass it through the tube which is centered in the rear part of the pit. Once the cable has come
out of the other end of the tube, place the ramp correctly in the pit.
Once the ramp is placed in the pit, check the following points:
The distance between the sides of the ramp and the pit must be exactly the same in the front zone as in the rear zone.
If the frame is not in the right place in the pit, the gap should be in the rear part and never on the sides.
Bearing in mind that the height of the pit is generally about 10 mm higher than the ramp, it is essential to add flat bars or similar
materials under the base of the ramp until the correct level is obtained. between the ramp and the loading dock. The support points
are those indicated by the arrows in the following diagram:
Place at least the following flat irons for leveling: - 2 in the front part of
the ramp (which will coincide with the weld beads). - 3 in the rear part of the ramp, which will
coincide with the descending profiles of the head of the frame. 1 on the point of application of each jack.
-
Then, weld the flat irons to the ramp and the ramp to the pre-frame to embed, according to the indications.
6x100/375 (x5)
6x200 (x2)
The distance between the sides of the ramp and the pit must be exactly the same in the front zone as in the rear
zone.
If the frame is not in the right place in the pit, the gap should be in the rear part and never on the sides.
The purpose of these gaps is to NOT allow the sides of the frame to close against the mobile ramp, under the
pressure exerted by concreting the ground, if this happened, it would cause a serious problem with the rear
operation of the machine.
5 claws must be distributed in the rear part, 3 or 4 on each side (depending on the length of the machine) and 2
under each frontal descending profile.
Weld one end to the frame profile and the other end to the reinforced concrete.
Weld one end to the frame profile and then seal the sides with polyurethane foam.
Once all the claws are welded, seal the sides with polyurethane foam, so that the concrete does not enter the
space left. The platform will be ready for the formwork of the final coating of the loading dock.

work (see note)
Note : Concrete slab H250 minimum and thickness greater than or equal to 200 mm. Filling of the perimeter with concrete H 250
minimum.
Fix the electrical box frame to the wall, at the desired height and perfectly aligned with the exit of the ramp wires at
approximately 1300 mm from the floor.
Set up the tube for the passage of the electrical wires at the distance between the electrical box and the ground.
Fix the tube to the wall (with at least 3 collars), it must be perpendicular to the floor of the loading dock and aligned
with the exit of the wires from the ramp.
Once properly fixed, pass the wires and connect them according to the electrical diagram found inside the
electrical box. (See electrical box connections, page 19).
VERY IMPORTANT: Undo the side skirts, removing the rivet that holds them and check their movement and
their functionality.
Finally, check the good condition of the ramp paint, checking for defects (including the flat irons of the leveling).
The installation can be considered complete when the installer authorized by INKEMA completes the corresponding
assembly control sheet .

VERY IMPORTANT: With regard to the handling of the ramp, respect at all times the law on the prevention of
occupational risks, as well as the safety, health and hygiene regulations at work.
Turn off the electricity and disconnect the electrical frame, disassemble the electrical box frame and the electrical
conduit.
Strap the front of the ramp to prevent it from opening when handling it by placing at least two 30 x 1 mm steel
straps.
Next, cut all the welds holding the ramp to the pre-frame of the work, both those at the front and those at the
back.
Once this work is done, proceed with the extraction of the ramp in the pit.
This operation must be carried out with the help of a crane or similar device and to hoist it, use chains, slings or
similar with a loading capacity equal to or greater than the weight of the ramp.
VERY IMPORTANT : With regard to the handling of the ramp, respect at all times the law of prevention of
occupational risks, as well as the safety, health and hygiene regulations at work.
