• Maximum performance when moving on ramps.
• Ergonomic workstation.
• Small turning radius.
• Optimum corrosion protection.
• High energy efficiency .

More Characteristics

The EZS 7280 sit-on tow tractor is ideal for transporting heavy loads across the airport apron or the premises of industrial companies. With its maximum pulling performance of 28 t, combined with the strong torque and good braking, it transports loads easily and safely. Its particular strength is the transport of heavy loads on ramps. Stopping and starting on the ramp is always problem free thanks to the automatic parking brake and hill start assistant.

Thanks to the compact dimensions and the large steering lock of the front wheels, even the narrowest spaces on the site can safely be mastered. The 2x10 kW individually controlled drive motors are not only key for drive capacity, they also support the manoeuvrability of the truck, especially at low speeds.

The tow tractor is particularly robust for frequent outdoor use. The cathodic-dip coating of the base frame also protects the truck against the most adverse weather conditions.

Various driver cabs are available for the operator in such situations, with optional folding or sliding door, maximising protection throughout the working day.

An automotive-style pedal configuration and an adjustable steering wheel position enable every operator to move the EZS 7280 safely within a very short time.

Batteries with a maximum capacity of up to 930 Ah deliver sufficient energy for all tasks. Thanks to its rapid and boost charging capability, the need for a battery replacement can be completely avoided with a 500 Ah lithium-ion battery.

Advantages in Detail

Safety in every driving situation

Comprehensive safety equipment for high drive dynamics and performance:

• Reduction of travel speed when cornering due to curveCONTROL.
Generously designed cab with optimum all-round view. Automatic parking brake with roll-back protection: When the truck comes to a halt, the tow tractor and trailer are automatically secured. No roll-back when starting on the ramp thanks to the hill-start assistant. Reliable starting on any surface thanks to anti-skid control (ASC).

Robust design for any situation

• Up to 20-mm thick steel frame.
Cathodic-dip coating of base frame for effective corrosion protection. Robust front apron with high corners, an equally robust centre front as well as recessed windscreen.

Ergonomic workstation

Thanks to the automotive-style configuration of the operator workstation, the cab is especially ergonomic:

• Low entry step with level foot-well.
Automotive-style pedal configuration. The speed control system relieves the strain on the operator over long distances (optional). Easy steering wheel adjustment for operators of different heights. The coupling is visible from the operator's seat and is easily accessible. Operator-oriented storage concept for intuitive operation. The heating ensures a pleasant interior temperature. Its optimised outlet vents prevent fogging of the windows.

Long operating times available with lead-acid battery

Energy-efficient 3-phase AC technology and high battery capacities allow for long operating times. The EZS offers two different wheelbases for different battery sizes with a maximum capacity of up to 930 Ah.

Additional equipment
