QDD601T Towtractor Model
The QDD601T is a seated electric tow tractor designed for medium to long-distance internal towing where lighter tow units are no longer enough.
The QDD301T/601T series features a maintenance-free AC drive system, ergonomic operator station, low centre of gravity, large solid rubber tyres and optional semi or fully enclosed cabins, making it a practical option for warehouses, factories and logistics centres that need stable towing over longer runs. The published specs list the QDD601T with 6000 kg towing capacity, 48V battery power, 1780 mm turning radius, and travel speeds up to 15 km/h unladen.
For use on most business sites, the QDD601T is the stronger option when internal towing is becoming a major part of the operation, and the loads are heavier than a 3.0 or 4.5 tonne tow tractor can comfortably manage. It suits milkrun routes, multi-cart movement and larger industrial sites where forklifts are being tied up doing transport work instead of lift work. Compass Forklifts can supply the QDD601T for purchase, hire or lease, with finance options available if buying outright is not the right fit.

QDD601TFAQs
Everything you need to know about the heavy duty QDD601T Tow Tractor
Got questions about the QDD601T? Here are some of the most common things we get asked about this seated 6T capacity tow tractor.
What is the towing capacity of the QDD601T?
The QDD601T is rated to tow up to 6000 kg, which makes it a practical option for heavier internal trolley movement in factories, logistics centres and production lines.
What is the main difference between the QDD301T and QDD601T?
The main difference is towing capacity and drive output. The QDD601T moves the same seated towing platform from 3000 kg to 6000 kg and uses a 6 kW AC drive motor instead of the smaller motor in the QDD301T.
Is the QDD601T mainly for longer travel routes?
Yes. EP positions the QDD301T/601T series for factories, logistics centres and production lines that require frequent towing of heavy loads over medium to long distances.
Can the QDD601T be used outdoors?
Yes. This model is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, with solid rubber tyres, a low centre of gravity and reliable operation on smooth floors and uneven ground. Optional cabin configurations also help for all-weather use. Please contact our team to find out more information.
Why choose the QDD601T over using a forklift for towing?
Choose the QDD301T when the job is mainly internal towing over a distance. It frees up forklifts for lifting work and provides a more efficient solution for moving multiple carts or loads across bigger sites.
