Quick Overview
The Pony Express 1085 is a motorized endoscopy cart from Electro Kinetic Technologies. It is a customizable two column platform on a powered drive system, so the tower of scopes, processors, monitors and supplies moves between rooms without a technician leaning into it. The operator sets speed with a thumb wheel on the ergonomic handle and walks alongside.
EK Tech built this cart around a safety problem. Research from the Liberty Mutual Research Institute for Safety found that push and pull forces as low as 35 pounds contribute to musculoskeletal injuries, and many hospitals now limit how hard staff may push equipment. A loaded endoscopy cart on carpet, over thresholds or up an incline easily beats that number, and the motorized drive removes the force from the caregiver instead of asking them to work around it.
The cart measures 54 in long, 27 in wide and 51 in high, runs from 0 to 3 mph on a variable speed drive, handles inclines rated to 6 degrees and covers up to 10 miles of operation on a single charge. It rides on 6 in ball bearing full swivel rubber casters, two with a toe locking brake, and a center wheel suspension and drive system gives it the turning behavior you want in a procedure corridor. Regenerative dynamic braking brings it to a controlled stop at any speed and an automatic holding brake stops it rolling at zero speed, even on a slope. A horn, key switch, emergency stop and high and low speed switch sit at the operator station, and the UL, cUL and CE listed on board charger works on 120 or 240 VAC through a 10 ft hospital grade retractable cord.
Both columns are yours to configure with drawers 3 in, 6 in or 9 in high, shelves and a keyboard shelf, and the cart accepts an articulating monitor mount, a hospital grade power strip, an isolation transformer, sharps and waste containers, a chart holder and a large basket. Because every build is different we quote it rather than list a price. If your department also moves medication or records, see the custom motorized medication cart and the Pony Express 1033 medical records cart.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why buy a motorized endoscopy cart instead of a manual one?
Because of the force. EK Tech cites Liberty Mutual research showing push and pull forces as low as 35 pounds contribute to musculoskeletal injuries, and a fully loaded scope tower on carpet or an incline goes past that. The 1085 drives itself, so the technician steers instead of shoving, and the department stops burning staff hours on injuries.
How much can I customize the cart?
A lot. Both columns take drawers of 3 in, 6 in or 9 in, shelves and a keyboard shelf, and the accessory list runs to an articulating monitor mount, a 6 outlet 15 A hospital grade power strip, an 1800 VA hospital grade isolation transformer, a locking sharps holder, aluminum or 3 gal plastic waste containers, a 3 gal sharps container, a chart holder and a large basket. Paint comes in 16 colors.
Will it handle ramps and thresholds?
It is rated to a maximum incline of 6 degrees. Regenerative dynamic braking gives a controlled stop at any speed and the automatic holding brake keeps the cart still at zero speed even on an incline, so it does not creep away from you on a slope.
How does it charge?
The on board smart charging system is UL, cUL and CE listed and works on 120 or 240 VAC at 50/60 Hz through a 10 ft hospital grade retractable power cord. Plug it in at the end of a list and it is ready for the next day.
What does it cost and how long does it take?
The 1085 is configured to order, so the price depends on the columns, locking and accessories you choose. Call us on 1-888-233-5563 or send us your requirement and we will come back with a written quote and the current factory build time.

Great Experience!
Super helpful team in helping us make a decision. We needed a scooter that we could modify to carry our 2 Jack Russell’s at trials. This scooter worked out perfectly. Please let them help you. I’m sure there are bigger companies, but I felt we got such personal attention. It was an amazing experience. Delivery was just a few days. Remarkable!

Auto Fold
I needed a mobility scooter that was auto-folding, but not overly engineered where problems can arise, was not too heavy to lift by myself, would easily fit in the trunk of my car, and not be overly expensive. Wishful thinking I thought. Until I discovered the MOJO on my computer. This scooter ticked all my boxes, and more. It is comfortable, well built, is easy to charge the batteries without having to bend down to remove them, and even if you do want to remove them they are accessible from the standing position. the tiller is fully adjustable as are the arm rests, the folding/unfolding functions are easily initiated, and the axle release is easily achieved. A well engineered piece of kit. Now, for the customer service: I can honestly say that I have never come across anything like it; it is absolutely perfect. The gentleman I dealt with 'bent over backwards' to help me without pressuring me into a purchase, and to ensure I was buying a scooter that was right for me. Because I live in New Zealand I knew I was creating a lot more work for him, but he never complained. This and my MOJO are very much appreciated. I am very thankful for the day I first saw the MOJO on the internet. I I now own my very own MOJO.

We are so pleased with the Scoota Trailer we ordered through Heavy Duty Mobility. We dealt with Raphael who could not have be nicer and more helpful. He stayed in close contact letting me know when the manufacturer received the order, when it was complete and when it shipped. The customer service was second to none. It was obvious in all communications with Raphael that he genuinely cared that our son's needs were met with this trailer for his new powerchair. I highly recommend going through Heavy Duty Mobility when ordering equipment for yourself or your handicapped loved ones.

Heavy Duty Mobility did a fine Job.
Heavy Duty Mobility did a fine Job matching me up with the besr mobility scooter to meet my needs. The Afikim S-3 is a high quality piece of equipment. It operates as advertised. It maintains it's speed while ascending the hills in the small town, where I live. Heavy Duty Mobility was by my side throughout the entire purchase process. Even after I took delivery of the fine S-3 scooter and needed to have questions answered about the machine. Jon Fisher Cedarville, MI

I was looking for a scooter for my mother. I researched it online and found some sites that were selling the scooter for the same price. Heavy duty mobility was willing to beat the price as they had a 5% discount. They were also. Extremely kind and helpful. They answered all my questions and what they did not know. They contacted the company to find out and got back to me the same day. They kept me in the loop with shipping and also reached out to me to confirm receipt and to make sure everything was correct and working properly. Very impressed

Top shelf, customer service,
Found the type of Scooter. I wanted to buy online not everyone has the kind of scooter. I have . Talked to Raphael Perlmann about the scooter I wanted. I was a little hesitant at first because they were from Florida. After talking to Raphael I felt a much more comfortable about the idea of having a scooter shipped all across the country am in Seattle WA.
The scooter arrived,in shipping and had a torn seat. Ops Raphael took care of the problem got me a new seat ASP negotiated with the makers of my scooter.for me.
Couple months into having my scooter. I had an issue with the wheel making a noise..
Called my dealer Raphael he worked tirelessly negotiating with the maker of the Scooter to make sure the issue got fixed .
Would’ve loved not to have any issues with my new scooter, but knowing Raphael was on my side, helping me anytime there was an issue to get the problem fixed was a huge blessing.
Raphael Perlmann Has restored my faith in Customer service .
So many companies sell your product and then they don’t care they got their money !
Not that way at heavy mobility scooters store .
I have seen that this company and Raphael Perlmann cares about their customers after the sell.
I will recommend to my mother and any other family member, and friend to order a scooter from Raphael Perlmann ..:
His care and consideration for me and my Scooter has definitely restored my faith and Customer service .
The quality of customer service I receive from him is a wonderful change from the type of customer service I get from businesses I work with and give money to every month .
Other companies couldn’t learn something from this man and heavy mobility Scooter about Customer service .
Thank you
Raphael Perlmann For the caring you show your customers .
Top shelf customer service .

They are very professional, they listen to what you would like to have, and they may make suggestions, but the decisions are up to you.
The person I talked with was very professional.
He knew what products I may like, but in the end it was my choice of what to buy, or not buy.
There was no pressure, just suggestions I appreciate people who don't pressure you into buying something.
