New Small Electric Airplane Tug Pulls up to 4,000 lbs
Lindbergh Aircraft Tug Company is the world's leader in providing battery-powered movers and pullers to the aircraft, manufacturing, hospital, and retail industries. They provide solutions that eliminate the strains and pains associated with manually pushing airplanes, heavy carts and wheeled equipment, or are less costly, smaller, and more maneuverable than traditional equipment like ride on tugs and fork trucks which are not designed to push/pull aircraft and equipment.
Their new battery powered, walk-behind, quiet electric airplane tug, called the AircraftCaddy 4K Jr., is designed for one person to safely and easily push and pull an airplane in and out of a hangar. This design came from customers inquiring on a simpler, and more cost effective tug that only pulls and pushes smaller planes without having all the flexibility of some of our larger, more versitle tugs.
The AircraftCaddy 4K Jr airplane tug has smooth acceleration and braking systems that eliminates the rough starting/stopping of gas powered clutching systems. Also, the quietness of the electric motor allows an operator to manipulate their airplane while having the full use of sound, site, and touch.
Lindbergh Aircraft Tug Company manufactures the highest quality airplane tugs ranging in capacity from 4K to 35K at very competitive prices. Please contact them today at 1-800-686-2651 or visit them on the web at lindbergh.com/aircraft-tug.com
