4.5T QDD45S tow tractor Perth
QDD45S Towtractor Model
The QDD45S is a stand-on electric tow tractor designed for longer-distance internal towing where lighter tow units are no longer enough. EP positions the QDD30S/45S around a maintenance-free AC drive motor, electronic power steering, a vibration-absorbing stand-on platform and a robust steel chassis, making it a practical fit for warehouses, factories and distribution centres where multiple trolleys need to move efficiently through the day. EP’s product portfolio lists the QDD45S at 4500 kg capacity with 24V lead-acid power.
For Perth sites, the QDD45S is the stronger option when internal towing is becoming a bigger part of the operation, and the loads are heavier than a 3.0 tonne tow tractor can comfortably manage. It suits milkrun routes, multiple trolley movement and larger industrial sites where forklifts are being tied up doing transport work instead of lift work. Compass Forklifts can supply the QDD45S for purchase, hire or lease, with finance options available if buying outright is not the right fit.

QDD45S FAQs
Everything you need to know about the QDD45S Tow Tractor
Got questions about the QDD45S? Here are some of the most common things we get asked about this heavy-duty 4.5T capacity tow tractor.
What is the towing capacity of the QDD45S?
The QDD45S is rated to tow up to 4500 kg, which makes it a practical option for heavier internal trolley movement in warehouses, factories and distribution centres.
What is the main difference between the QDD30S and QDD45S?
The main difference is towing capacity. The QDD45S moves the same stand-on towing platform from 3000 kg to 4500 kg, making it the better fit for heavier internal transport work.
Is the QDD45S mainly for longer travel routes?
Yes. EP positions the QDD30S/45S range for longer routes where the driver stands on the truck, especially in milk run and multiple trolley transport applications.
What makes the QDD45S easier to use over a full shift?
EP highlights the vibration-absorbing platform, ergonomic tiller controls and electronic power steering as key features that improve comfort and control during longer runs.
Why choose the QDD45S over using a forklift for towing?
Choose the QDD45S when the job is mainly internal towing over distance, and the loads are heavier. It frees up forklifts for lifting work and provides a more efficient solution for moving multiple trolleys or loads across a larger site.
