Appleton launches cordless CartMover

The newest cordless CartMover from Appleton Manufacturing is now available with a wide choice of hitch options. The compact, battery-powered CartMover is designed to safely and securely move heavy loads on wheels, such as roll carts, printing sleeve carts, mobile pallets of printed signatures, bundled printed matter and more. CartMover hitches come in unique sizes and configurations to securely engage and move loads without risk of personal injury or additional machinery. Hitch options include a top mount hitch, a base front mount hitch, a trailer-style hitch, and posts and claw hitches in a variety of sizes.

With a powerful gearmotor drive, the portable CartMover can move up to 20,000 lbs.
Batteries can be changed without tools in as little as 10 seconds. Battery life is also extended with a battery-cooling recharger station. Controls for speed and direction including forward, reverse, up and down are conveniently located on the CartMover handle. The CartMover automatically stops when the handle is released or butts up against the user. The Cart Mover comes standard with the choice of one hitch. Custom-designed hitches are also available. In-plant demo units are available on a limited basis.
