Material Handling

Applications:

This tugger is the smallest, most maneuverable tug available on the market, and still has plenty of power to handle most push or pull applications. The most common application for the tuggers is the cart with two front swivel casters and two straight casters. The CartCaddyShorty tugger attaches to the swivel castered end and provides the pushing and pulling power necessary for easy turning and intricate maneuvering.  These carts can carry a variety of items, such as a bin full of washers, a flat bed of steel, or a cart full of cookie dough. Regardless of the parts or equipment being pulled or pushed, our battery powered tugger has the power to push or pull almost any heavy cart.

 Benefits:

The use of the CartCaddyShorty power tugger minimizes the risk of injury, which in turn reduces workers' compensation and insurance claims.  The tugger also increases overall productivity. Heavy carts which previously had required multiple operators to maneuver can now be negotiated by a single employee. As a result, the operators eliminated from these tasks are available for alternate responsibilities.  Companies also receive an indirect benefit of improved employee morale by reducing the drudgery of physical labor for their employees. Improved employee morale decreases employee turnover and improves overall job performance.

Added weight over the drive tires creates greater traction and allows the 5WP tug to handle heavier loads.

Applications:

Most commonly, the application includes the cart with two front swivel casters and two rear straight casters. The CartCaddy5WP tug attaches to the swivel caster end and provides the power necessary to easily turn and maneuver.  These carts can carry a variety of items, but regardless of the parts or equipment being moved, our motorized tug has the power to push or pull almost any heavy cart.

Benefits:

The tug can travel from 0-3 mph in forward and reverse using a variable speed twist grip. This ergonomically correct variable speed feature prevents carpal tunnel and allows the operator to maintain smooth control while intricately maneuvering a load.  If the operator ever finds him/her self in a situation where he may be injured, the tug can be stopped easily using a safety stop switch at the back of the power tug handle bar box.  The customized attachment and the electric lift option eliminate the need for fabricating multiple attachments for each cart or piece of equipment. The CartCaddy5WP's tug 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 CartCaddy5WP motorized cart puller for better traction when moving each load.  Maneuvering and smooth pivoting of your loads is easy with the CartCaddy5WP power tug. After the arm is attached firmly to your carts or equipment, the unit can pivot a full 180 degrees, allowing your operator to turn the electric tug without jackknifing your cart.

Applications:

A common application of the battery powered tug is the cart with two front swivel casters and two straight back casters and that needs to be pulled significant distances. The battery powered tug RiderCaddy can either attach to the swivel caster end of a cart with the electric lift kit or can grab the eye of a cart with a pintle hitch or pin. 

Benefits:

The battery powered tug increases overall productivity. If your company had carts that required several operators, a RiderCaddy would allow them to be moved by just one operator. The operators eliminated from this responsibility would then beavailable for other tasks.  A variable speed thumb twist grip is included on the tug that gives the operator smooth control, allowing the Rider Caddy to move from 0-5 mph in forward and reverse.  The pintle hitch or pin attachment and electric lift option eliminate the need for fabricating multiple attachments for each cart or piece of equipment. The arm of the battery powered tug lowers and rises, allowing it to attach to the bottom of any cart. Weight is transferred from the cart to the front drive wheels of the RiderCaddy equipment tug for better traction when moving each load.  The RiderCaddy battery powered tug can easily maneuver and pivot your loads. After the arm is attached firmly to your carts or equipment, the unit can pivot a full 180 degrees under the arm. These features allow your operator to sharply turn the RiderCaddy powered tug without jackknifing the cart.

Applications:

Many vehicle manufacturers use a CarCaddy car and vehicle pusher to push the units short distances down a production line from station to station. A CarCaddy also has plenty of power to push a stalled vehicle at service centers or along highways.

Benefits:

The primary benefit of using the CarCaddy car and vehicle pusher is to prevent the strains associated with pushing stalled cars, buses, heavy trucks, and other vehicles. Overextending the body when manually pushing cars from the parking lot into a service center garage can be extremely harmful to the worker, as can pushing a stalled vehicle from the highway to the shoulder. When a car and vehicle pusher is used for these routine tasks, damage to the body (including back and shoulder strain) is minimized, which keeps employees healthy and reduces workers' compensation.  The CarCaddy also prevents damages associated with moving these stalled vehicles using another vehicle. In cases where manpower is not available, other vehicles are used to bump up against the back end of the stalled vehicle. Both vehicles can be dented, scratched, or cracked due to this practice. The front push pad of the CarCaddy car and vehicle pusher is made of a soft, durable, padded material designed to preserve the paint and integrity of the back end of the stalled vehicle while also protecting the car and vehicle pusher.

Applications:

The TrailerCaddy trailer mover is capable of pushing and pulling an RV, a camper, an equipment trailer, or a boat. A wheeled trailer is usually pulled with a powered vehicle down a highway. However, when a trailer is being manufactured or needs to be moved short distances in a show room, at a trade show, or down an assembly line, using the electric TrailerCaddy trailer mover is the perfect solution.

Benefits:

The powered trailer mover is less bulky than the traditional electric trailer puller product, which results in fewer accidents and lower maintenance costs. Increased control over the trailer mover in tightly confined areas also causes minimal damage to surrounding parts and equipment compared to other electric puller products.

Applications:

The DealerCaddy trailer and truck pusher can effortlessly push a car, truck, or another large vehicle up to 10,000 lbs. with an adjustable push pad created to contour the bumper on the back of any vehicle. An adjustable height push pad flips back to expose a ball hitch that can pull cargo or a utility trailer from your parking lot into service bays. The DealerCaddy truck pusher has a heavy duty flat bed for hauling heavy tool boxes, supplies, and equipment.

Benefit:

The DealerCaddy truck pusher is ergonomically effective in preventing the strain associated with service mechanics manually pushing a large vehicle, wasting time and money pushing a truck, car, or trailer, rather than repairing it immediately. The use of the DealerCaddy truck pusher increases productivity and minimizes any risk of injury to employees. Since the usage of the pusher is much safer compared to other methods, the overall number of insurance and workers' compensation claims is also reduced.

Almost anything on wheels can be pushed or pulled by the electric tug.

Applications:

The CartCaddyLH mover achieves traction to push or pull a load by either adding steel to the inside of the CartCaddy or by transferring weight from the cart to the wheels of the electric tug. Weight transfer can be accomplished in two ways, with the electric lift kit, or pushing with the angled push pad. Some loads require a combination of both methods.  Higher amperage controllers are available to further increase the CartCaddyLH's electric tug power for more demanding cart pushing and pulling applications.

Benefits:

The CartCaddyLH electric tug is less bulky than traditional equipment, which results in fewer accidents and lower maintenance costs. The maneuverability of the electric tug also reduces damage that is done to surrounding parts and equipment.  The electric tug also effectively prevents the difficulty often associated with manually pushing and pulling heavy equipment. The use of the CartCaddyLH cart mover minimizes the risk of injury, which in turn reduces workers' compensation and insurance claims.
