Overview

Rear view of the Pony Express 1065 Electric Powered Tugger with sturdy metal frame, wide stance, and heavy-duty tires.

The Pony Express 1065-HD delivers strong pulling power with its 24V motor, helping reduce strain and improve efficiency in warehouses, hospitals, labs, and industrial sites.

Key Features

  • Same 25 by 24 inch body as the 5,000 lb 1065 with 1,500 lb more pull
  • Regenerative braking slows the train on the move and the automatic holding brake parks it on an incline, with a de rated pull on a 30 degree grade
  • Recharges in about 4 hours from the onboard UL listed charger on any 120 or 240 VAC outlet
  • IP54 sealed controller and IP42 machine rating for dusty floors
  • Belly button emergency stop, dead man thumb wheel and a 115 dB industrial horn option
  • Foam filled puncture proof tires never go flat and leave no marks on finished floors
  • Multiple hitch options connect to carts, dies and supply trains of different styles
  • Welded powder coated steel frame built in the USA with a 2 year frame and motor warranty

Safety and Control

Dual speed settings, regenerative braking, and ergonomic handle controls ensure safe and smooth operation. Built-in safety features include horn, emergency stop, and battery charge indicator.

Durability You Can Trust

Made in the USA, the heavy-duty steel frame, powder-coated finish, and never-flat tires make the 1065-HD a reliable solution for long-term use in demanding environments.

Versatile Towing

Compatible with a wide portfolio of hitch options, this tugger adapts to different carts and transport needs across industries.

Warranty

The Pony Express 1065-HD comes with a 2-year warranty on the frame and motor, providing dependable performance and peace of mind.

The 1065-HD pulls up to 6,500 pounds, which makes it a good fit for moving loaded carts, dies, and supply trains around tight aisles where a forklift would be overkill or simply will not turn. If you are weighing this unit against lighter walk-behind options, it sits at the upper end of our motorized load mover for factory floors lineup, so it pays to compare pull ratings and battery runtime across the range before you commit. Buyers who already know they need this much towing capacity usually land here, but the collection page lays out where each tugger fits by weight class and shift length.

What is the Pony Express 1065-HD used for?

The 1065-HD is a walk behind electric tugger for moving loaded carts, dies and supply trains around warehouses, hospitals, labs and industrial sites. It fits tight aisles where a forklift would be overkill or simply will not turn, and multiple hitch options connect it to carts of different styles.

How much weight can the 1065-HD tow?

The 1065-HD is rated to tow 6,500 lb on a flat surface. It can climb inclines up to 30 degrees, but the load it can handle on a slope is lower. Size it for your heaviest loaded cart and the steepest ramp on the route, not the average load, since floor condition and slope both cut usable capacity.

What is the difference between the 1065-HD and the 1065?

The 1065-HD uses the same 25 by 24 in body as the 1065 but tows 6,500 lb, 1,500 lb more than the 5,000 lb 1065. Both run on a 70 Ah AGM battery with the same speeds and charger. Choose the 1065-HD when your heaviest loaded cart or train runs past 5,000 lb.

How long does the 1065-HD battery last and how is it charged?

The 70 Ah AGM battery gives up to 8 hours of operation. The charger is built in and plugs into any 120 or 240 VAC outlet, and a full recharge takes about 4 hours. The charger carries UL, cUL and CE listings.

How fast does the 1065-HD go, and what stops it safely?

Speed is variable from 0 to 1.5 mph in the low setting and 0 to 3 mph in the high setting, forward and reverse. The dead man thumb wheel brings the unit to a controlled stop when the operator lets go, a belly button emergency stop protects the operator, and an electromagnetic brake parks the load on an incline.

Can the 1065-HD work in cold areas or on finished floors?

It is rated to operate from 0 to 40 C, which is 32 to 104 F, so it is not rated for spaces below freezing. The machine carries an IP42 rating and the controller IP54 against dust and splashes. The foam filled drive tire is puncture proof and non marking, so it will not flatten or scuff finished floors.

How big is the 1065-HD and how does it arrive?

The tugger body is 25 in long and 24 in wide, a compact footprint for a machine rated to tow 6,500 lb. It ships packed in a 48 by 40 by 60 in crate at about 800 lb, so plan for a way to unload it at your dock.

Do operators need training to use an electric tugger?

Plan on it. OSHA rule 1910.178 covers tractors, motorized hand trucks and other powered industrial trucks, and it requires that only trained and authorized operators use them. Your facility decides how that applies to your team. At minimum, walk each operator through the dead man throttle, the emergency stop and the speed switch before the first run.

Where is the Pony Express 1065-HD made?

It is built in the USA by EK Tech, with a welded steel frame in a powder coated finish.
