Polaris’ Taylor-Dunn product line has introduced the TT-416 ergonomic stand-up tow tractor. It features full front and rear suspension, is capable of 5’x5’ aisle turning, is powered by a 36-volt AC motor, and can tow up to 16,000 lbs.
Automatic braking on gas pedal release eliminates vehicle runaway potential, and a floor presence sensor requires operator to be on the vehicle to operate. LED headlights and a sloped body design enhances operator visibility, while yellow body panels, standard brake and side marker lights, reverse warning beeper and optional blue pedestrian light increase vehicle awareness. Dual emergency stop switches are also standard, which allows the operator to quickly shut down the vehicle’s operation in case of emergency.
Ergonomics are central to the TT-416 stand-up tow tractor. A front and rear suspension smooths the ride reducing operator fatigue and features such as adjustable tilt steering and optional power steering increase operator comfort. A rubber floor lines the bottom of the large operator compartment to help prevent operators slipping and offer easy ingress/egress. Optional seat back wings enhance operator stability. Additionally, an optional on-board hitch release allows the operator to connect or release the hitch without exiting the vehicle, and multiple storage areas keep necessary items secured.
