      Your Questions, Answered - FAQs

      Is an operator license or training required? 

      No, electric tugs do not require a license to operate. A license-free operation makes electric tugs an attractive option for retailers and logistics providers looking to streamline the movement of loads and improve safety.    

      Minimal training is required to safely operate an electric tug and we offer training packages to suit every requirement.      

      How are electric tugs powered?

      Electric tugs are battery powered, with interchangeable batteries or lithium options available, electric tugs can deliver 24/7 operation to keep your processes moving.

      Offering zero emissions from the point of use, electric tugs are ideally suited for indoor use. 

      Can I use an electric tug to move more than one roll cage at a time? 

      Yes. If you’re looking to move multiple laden roll cages at the same time, we offer a unique system that enables you to link multiple cages together and move them using an electric tug.

      You can also move trains of nested, empty roll cages using electric tugs.  

      Can electric tugs work with all types of roll cages? 

      With a customisable clamp, our SmartMover range can connect to most cage designs. We also provide an array of adaptors to allow you to connect to your cages.
