A pedestrian-controlled and articulated battery-electric truck with low-loading facilities from Bactric Ltd., consists of the wellknown Power-Pack and gearless differential to which has been added a new differential discbrake, providing two-wheel differential drive and two-wheel disc braking, single speed forward and reverse.
The trailer has a 2ft. by 3ft. standard platform, 10in, above floor level. The platform has a lip at the rear edge, similar to a Sackbarrow, and tips vertically to pick up items too heavy to lift. Larger and higher platforms may be quickly interchanged by snaphooks. Maximum carrying capacity is lOcwt.
Wheels, pneumatic, solid, or a combination of both, are of 12in. diameter and are available with a choice of tyre tread patterns, including those designed for soft outdoor conditions.
Another version of the machine is used with quickly interchanged trailers, so that one operator can haul and interchange a great number of full or empty trailers without releasing the control handle.
The Dymo printer.
Minimum width is 24in.
All models have socket outlets for use with shockproof 12V tools.
Made by: Bactric Ltd., Griffin Mill Estate, Thrupp, Stroud, Gloucestershire.
