Electric Airplane Tug Applications

The Aircraft Caddy 4K. Jr. Electric Airplane Tug was specially developed for moving small aircrafts with or without wheel pants with weights upwards to 4,000 lbs. A heavy-duty steel framed and battery operated tug, this machine caddy can be easily operated by one individual.

The Aircraft Caddy 4K Jr. is capable of moving an airplane at a careful speed range of 0-2 mph. Since it is a walk0behind tug, the operator has better control with maneuvering the plane. This reduces the risks of accidents. It is ergonomically designed and boasts a quiet electric motor, which reduces the risks of injuries and hearing impairments. This also makes it much easier for the operator to have full concentration when moving the aircraft.

"I’ve had my 4K Jr. aircraft caddy for 3 years. It has been 100% reliable. Overall, I could not be more pleased with my Caddy. It has taken all of the work out of moving my airplane. It does it quietly, unobtrusively, and easily. It is definitely one of the best purchases I’ve made since owning an airplane."

Michael B - - Montana

"Yes we have opened it up. My husband loves it, he took his plane out of the hanger and pulled it to have gas put in he said that it pulls his plane great and was very easy to use. I have to say he wasn't too sure when he first got it because of the size and weight of the unit, but once he used it he is loving it. Thanks again for working with me to set him up with the Aircraft caddy unit."

Laverne Macking

Tim Robertson

"He got the unit- he said it was HUGE- way bigger than he thought it was going to be but he LOVES it.. Loves that it is a nice/industrial unit- not motor on stick- he's been running his plane around for just fun- Loves it, really happy with our product and service-"
