Overview

Operator control panel close-up on Pony Express motorized cylinder cart

The Pony Express 1040-SE is an Electro Kinetic Technologies motorized platform cart that moves up to 1,000 pounds on a roomy 25.5 by 40 inch welded steel deck. As part of the 1040 Extreme line it climbs grades of up to 15 degrees at full load, so it handles ramps and sloped docks that stall a hand-pushed cart.

The Pony Express 1040-SE is an electric platform cart from Electro Kinetic Technologies built to move heavy loads across industrial floors with very little physical effort. It carries up to 1,000 pounds and rides on a 25.5 inch wide by 40 inch long deck, giving operators more staging room than the standard 1040-E while keeping a tight footprint for crowded aisles. As part of the Pony Express 1040 Extreme family it climbs grades of up to 15 degrees at full rating, so it handles loading ramps and sloped docks.

Power comes from a 44 Ah deep-cycle AGM battery that delivers up to 8 hours of operation and recharges in about 4 hours by an internal UL, cUL and CE listed smart charger that runs on standard 120 or 240 VAC. A front-wheel transaxle with a maintenance-free permanent-magnet motor drives the cart through a two-speed thumb-wheel throttle, moving from 0 to 1.5 mph on the low setting and 0 to 3 mph on the high setting in both forward and reverse. Solid-state regenerative braking and an automatic holding brake keep the load secure on inclines.

The 1040-SE is built around a welded steel frame with a powder-coat finish, a non-skid deck and full wrap-around bumpers, riding on foam-filled puncture-proof tires that never go flat and leave no marks. Keyed power, an emergency-stop button and a horn round out the operator controls. The cart weighs 245 pounds, is proudly made in the USA and is backed by a 2-year warranty on the frame and motor, making it a durable fit for warehouses, hospitals, retail back rooms, hotels and food-service operations.

A two speed thumb wheel throttle runs from 0 to 1.5 mph on the low setting and 0 to 3 mph on the high setting, in both forward and reverse.

Will the 1040-SE mark floors?

The foam-filled puncture proof tires never go flat and leave no marks. The 1040-SE is built for warehouses, hospitals, retail back rooms, hotels and food service operations. Keyed power, an emergency stop button and a horn round out the controls.

Is the 1040-SE made in the USA?
