The CartCaddyWagonWheel electric tugger is mainly made to pull or maneuver carts or trailers. These carts and trailers generally have a tongue that hinges up and down and that turns an axle at the bottom of the cart. Usually there is a ring at the end of these tongues that can be grabbled with a pin or pintle hitch. If your business uses carts that have two straight and two swivel casters, as well as a long arm extending from the cart, the electric tugger can also be used.

The electric tugger pushes heavier loads than our similar CartCaddy5WP. Due to the nature of the tow arms it grabs, it can't transfer the weight from the load to the drive wheels, explaining why the electric tugger doesn't have the lift kit

Applications of the Electric Tugger

The most common application is the trailer with quad steering wheels. The CartCaddyWagonWheel electric tugger attaches to the ring tow arm using either a pintle or pin and uses its pulling power to pull a train of self-tracking carts while the operator easily turns the steering arm for intricate maneuvering of the carts.

This electric tugger can carry a variety of items, whether it's luggage at an airport, car parts down an assembly line, or heavy concrete forms across a parking lot. As long as a heavy cart has a swivel arm, our motorized cart tugger will almost always have the power to push or pull it.

Benefits of the Electric Tugger

The electric tugger has a variable speed twist grip, which moves the cart up to 3 mph in forward and reverse directions. The ergonomically correct variable speed feature prevents carpal tunnel and allows the operator to maintain smooth control while intricately maneuvering a load.

The electric lift option and customized attachment eliminate the need to fabricate multiple attachments for each cart or piece of equipment. The CartCaddyWagonWheel's arm lowers and rises, allowing it to attach firmly to the bottom of any cart. Weight is transferred from the cart to the front drive wheels of the electric tugger for greater traction when moving each cart.
