Here at our customer in West Point Georgia ( just south of Atlanta) we were able to come in and get their safety coordinator up to speed on the proper Tugger training. We provided all the materials they need to document their training for OSHA and our manuals and tests are tugger specific but they have the option to edit them and put in company specific rules and procedures as well.

Tuggers
Looking for an efficient and flexible transport solution for your logistic routes? We offer tuggers, also called tow tractors, which give operators a safe and efficient way to transport goods to and from any destination within a facility. These are ride-on and rugged with a drawbar that can pull load capacities up to 55,000 lbs.
Forklift Tugger Carts
Tuggers are engineered to tow carts for batch order picking and horizontal transport. In manufacturing, tugger and cart systems replace one-load-at-a-time deliveries by forklifts to the production floor by acting as trains, or a linked series of multiple carts, carrying multiple loads in one trip. The forklift may load by the carts themselves but tuggers handle the deliveries. This system improves production speeds and workload capacities during operations.
