NuStar presents its new stainless steel pedestrian-operated Power Pusher to move heavy rolling loads in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, food, nutriceuticals, health/beauty aids, or other products involved with cleanrooms or heavy wash-down applications. According to the company, this battery-operated pusher additionally provides:
- The ability to efficiently and safely push, pull and maneuver wheeled loads up to 150,000 pounds, or those with high rolling resistance, with 1 person.
- The convenience of running on batteries, so as not to consume $4-per-gallon gasoline, diesel or propane, or not to emit any harmful exhaust or fumes unlike forklifts or other ride-on equipment.
- The capacity to increase productivity by reducing the number of employees needed to move heavy objects.
- Suitability for maneuvering and moving heavy cars, carts, dollies, racks, tanks, machinery, instruments, drums, pallets, containers and more.
- A soft-touch control for smooth and accurate maneuvering, so even delicate breakable loads move easily and safely.
- A safer work environment by reducing the risk of injury and keeping loads under control.
- A built-in battery charger that plugs into a standard outlet.
- Easy storage at a jobsite and transportation from site to site.
- A footprint less than 2 square yards.
- No need for an operating license.
- Availability of non-stainless steel-constructed models.
- Optional hitches, tow bars, strobes, motion beepers and push plates.
