EZS C40

Electric tow tractor with SE tyres (4,000 kg)

The Jungheinrich EZS C40 is a versatile,
economic tow tractor for pulling trailers
weighing up to 4000 kg. Attaching
several trailers allows the loading areas
to be varied. This contributes to flexible
material turnover. With its super-elastic
drive wheel (SE) the EZS C40 also oers
optimum traction on smooth floors as
well as slightly uneven ground, such
as when operating outdoors. At the
same time the solid tyre absorbs minor
impacts, e.g. from bumpy ground and
dock levellers. With its increased ground
clearance the truck is ideally suited for

travelling on uneven surfaces, even out­doors. The coupling is visible from any
position and easily accessible. This saves
time and costs. The tow tractor can be
equipped with a wide range of couplings,
making it adaptable to practically any
type of trailer.
The 24-volt drive motor with its 3-phase
AC technology ensures a high per­formance. The advantages: Powerful
acceleration and high maximum speed.
At the same time, it oers clear energy
savings, extended operating times and
minimal maintenance costs. This is due

to the optimised eciency, the opti­mised match between the drive motor
and drive control as well as regenerative
braking.
High productivity features include the
low stand-on platform and the short dis­tance from the operator position to the
load. The EZS works well in tight areas.
Its turning radius is so small that the
operator will feel that they are turning
on the spot. The JetPilot steering wheel,
supportive backrest and Curve Control
automatic speed reduction all provide
comfortable operation when cornering.

v=speed [km/h], m=incline [%], F=drawbar pull [N]

Example:

The EZS C40 can operate on a 3.5% incline
with a 1 tonne load. To do this the EZS
requires a 1000 N drawbar pull, enabling it to
reach approx. 7.5 km/h.

Note:

The EZS C40 is not suitable for continuous
operations over 800 N.

For gradients / descents greater than 4%
it is recommended that braked trailers be
used.
