• Precise control with electric steering and jetPILOT
• "SpeedControl", our smooth electronic control system

More characteristics

The Jungheinrich EZS C40 is a versatile, economic tow tractor for pulling trailers weighing up to 4,000 kg. Attaching several trailers allows the load surfaces to be infinitely variable. This contributes to flexible material turnover. With its superelastic drive wheel (SE) the EZS C40 also offers optimum traction on smooth floors as well as slightly uneven ground, such as 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 clearly visible from any position and is also easily accessible. This saves both 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 V 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 offers clear energy savings, extended operating times and minimal maintenance costs. This is due to the optimised efficiency, the favourable relationship 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 he is turning on the spot. The jetPILOT steering wheel, supportive backrest and Curve Control automatic speed reduction all provide comfortable operation when cornering.

Advantages in detail

Innovative 3-phase AC technology

Jungheinrich 3-phase AC motors offer you higher performance while simultaneously reducing operating costs. Make the most of these advantages:

• High level of efficiency with excellent energy management.
• Powerful acceleration.
• Rapid change in direction of travel
• No carbon brushes – maintenance-free drive motor.
• Two-year warranty on the drive motor.

Comfortable and safe operation

The SpeedControl electronic control system and Curve Control automatic cornering speed reduction ensure comfortable and safe operation which can be adapted to any application:

• The speed set by the drive switch is maintained under all travel conditions including gradients / descents.
• A choice of three travel programs for individual adaptation to any needs.
• Regenerative braking with energy recovery when slowing down.
• Safe cornering: the operator has the forklift truck under control at all times.

Optimum ergonomics

• Low operator platform for frequent and effortless entry and exit.
• Short distances for the operator from the cab to reach the coupling and load.
• The coupling is clearly visible from any position and is also easily accessible.
• Rapid and easy hitching/unhitching of the trailers through semi-automatic remote coupling unlocking (optional) from the operator position.
• JetPilot electric steering wheel.
• Range of coupling systems for various trailer types.
• All wheels are Super elastic (including drive wheel) to ensure maximum comfort.

Rugged construction for the toughest applications

• Frame made from high-grade, 8-mm steel sheet.
• Extra-high frame apron on front cover.
• SE tyres – including on the drive wheel – to protect operator and tow tractor.
• High ground clearance.
