The Model 8610 requires fewer battery changes, so you move more per shift. It all adds up to greater productivity, so you can move more for less. We call it Eco-Performance. You’ll call it performance without compromise.
The Raymond Model 8610 tow tractor is a workhorse that delivers. It is ideal in heavy-duty, high throughput applications with a 10,000 lb. capacity to meet your applications toughest demands.
Applications:
Horizontal Transport
Applications should not burden a truck with extensive capability to only transport horizontally. In batch picking and cart towing applications, Raymond tow tractors are a cost effective method for horizontal transport where stacking is not required. Tow tractors offer order picking functionality, and are available with various tow hitch configurations to maximize productivity, and offer a wide variety of operating positions to enhance operator comfort and minimize fatigue.
Low Level Order Picking
Boost throughput and pick rates with reliable, high performance Raymond tow tractors. We can customize our vast selection of lift trucks to enhance efficiency in order picking applications.
Cold Storage Environments
Refrigerated warehouses, blast freezers, and other cold storage applications require robust control systems. Raymond maintains its own cold storage test facility to replicate the harshest conditions; testing and proving our systems in extreme cycles of freezing and thawing.
UL EE Applications
This lift truck complies with Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 583. Raymond Type E and EE trucks are designed and manufactured to operate in classified locations as defined in NFPA 505. Type E and EE products are tested and certified by Underwriters Laboratories (UL).
