Learn how the Equipter 4000 capabilities can benefit your company with real-world applications. 

Well known in the industry, the Equipter 4000 is touted for an abundance of features. What you might be surprised to find out is this trailer has the ability to drive itself and be towed. Wondering what this actually means? This article explores the definition of a self-propelled and towable trailer and how you can make the most of it on any jobsite. 

The Equipter 4000, Equipter 3300 and Equipter 5400 can all be towed behind a vehicle using a ball hitch, no trailer or additional equipment is necessary. Simply connect the hitch to the hitch receiver, disengage the drive axle, connect the Equipter’s RV plug, attach the chains and you are ready to go. An Equipter can be delivered to a jobsite with one vehicle and leave the site towed behind another. This simple connectivity also makes renting the Equipter possible for crews that use many types of vehicles. The Equipter can be towed like any other trailer, both in the city and on the highway. The Equipter’s towability can be compared to a towable generator or towable air compressor which are equipped with wheels and a tow bar. The difference is that once the Equipter’s drive axle is engaged, it is self-propelled and can move around a jobsite under its own power. 

Every self-propelled trailer from Equipter can be driven around a jobsite. The Equipter 4000’s tight turning radius allows it to navigate tricky jobsites while its big wheels and weight distribution reduce landscaping and property damage. There are many examples of self-propelled construction equipment on the market, from skid loaders to bulldozers to pavers, but the Equipter’s design allows it to operate without damaging its surroundings. Each of these other self-propelled pieces of equipment require a trailer to move them on and off of the jobsite. The Equipter 4000 is unique in that it is self-propelled and towable equipment. When you are ready to move the Equipter, all you need to do is reconnect it to your vehicle.
