It is reported that by investing in SmartMover SM60 electric tugs from MasterMover for moving roll cages from delivery vehicles to convenience stores, Appleby Westward Group has reduced manual handling injuries to its delivery drivers by 42% within six months.

The SM60 is a versatile machine designed for moving wheeled loads such as roll cages from vehicle tail lifts and across uneven surfaces and slopes. The unit can turn through 90°. By clamping to the base of the roll cage, the tug ensures that the cage cannot be tipped on to the operator.

This reduces the risk of serious injury to employees and makes unloading a single-person procedure.
