TugTug: CartCaddy5WP

Power Tug Features and Specifications

The CartCaddy5WP Power Tug comes standard with a 36-volt system, 3 12-volt batteries, designed to give the operator 16-hours of continuous use, without moving a load, before recharging. Plenty of battery life to usually last two shifts.

The power tug has a variable speed twist grip for forward and reverse directions from 0 to 3 mph. The ergonomically correct variable speed feature prevents carpal tunnel and allows the operator to maintain smooth control while intricately maneuvering the load. The CartCaddy5W Power Tug ability to go 3 mph allows the machine to keep up with the operator without frustration from waiting for a slowly operating machine when operating the tug from point A to B through-out your facility.

The safety stop switch positioned at the back of the Power Tug handle bar box immediately stops the machine when depressed to prevent any possible injury from operating the device. This feature is a must when buying any piece of equipment.

The electric lift option and customized attachment prevent you from having to fabricate multiple attachments on everyone of your carts or equipment. The CartCaddy5WP's arm lowers and raises for attaching firmly to the bottom of your cart. Weight is transferred from your cart to the front drive wheels of the CartCaddy5WP power tug for better traction when moving your cart.

The CartCaddy5WP Power Tug is designed for easy maneuvering and pivoting of your loads. After the arm is attached firmly to your carts or equipment, the power tug can pivot a full 180 degrees under the arm. This feature allows for turning your loads a full 90 degrees without jack knifing your cart or manually turning the front of you cart.
