The Jungheinrich EZS C40 is a versatile and efficient tow tractor used for towing trailers of up to 4000 kg. The ability to couple several trailers together provides a flexible materials handling operation. With its super elastic drive wheel (SE) the EZS C40 also offers optimum traction on smooth floors as well as slightly uneven ground, such as operating outdoors. At the same time the tyre absorbs minor impacts, e.g. from bumpy ground and dock levelers.
With its increased ground clearance the truck is ideally suited for travelling on uneven surfaces, especially outdoors.
The coupling is clearly visible from any position and is also easily accessible, this saves time and money. The truck can be equipped with a wide range of couplings, making it adaptable to practically any type of trailer.
The 24 volt AC drive motor gives high performance.
The advantages: powerful acceleration and high maximum speed. At the same time it offers clear energy savings, extended uptime and minimal maintenance costs. This is due to the optimal set up between the drive motor and electronic controller as well as regenerative braking.
High productivity features include the low operator platform and the short distance from the operator to the load.
The EZS works well in tight areas. Its turning radius is so small that the driver feels that he is turning on the spot.
The JetPilot steering wheel, supportive backrest and Curve Control automatic speed reduction all provide comfortable operation when cornering.
