In order to continue to provide solutions adapted to the challenges of health, safety and productivity on building sites, Kiloutou has just signed an exclusive partnership with the company K-Ryole, for the rental of its intuitive electric handling truck, known as “Kross”. A first on the market, this handling truck is designed to transport all types of loads, up to 250 kg, easily and safely.
A solution for all construction sites
On construction sites, there is a wide range of equipment that enables the different phases of the work to be carried out quickly and efficiently. However, there are still tasks for which human activity is the only possible force, such as the transport of tools and materials, which is generally carried out at arm’s length or with the help of a wheelbarrow, in areas or on terrain that are difficult to access.
The consequences are well known: on the one hand, the arduousness of the work can lead to the appearance of Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSD); on the other hand, the loss of time and productivity on the sites.
Aware of the importance of these issues and the expectations of professionals in terms of risk prevention in their workplaces, Kiloutou has signed a partnership with the company K-Ryole to offer exclusive rental of the intuitive electric handling truck.
Launched in 2019, this new generation wheelbarrow has been adapted by K-Ryole to the requirements of Kiloutou’s test centre. It can effortlessly transport up to 250 kg of materials, tools, props, ladders, blocks, waste…
Suitable for all types of work sites, from construction to green spaces, including the industrial sector, this truck can be used by anyone without any training or CACES. It is eligible for CARSAT and CRAMIF subsidies.
An intuitive electric handling truck
The handling truck offered exclusively by Kiloutou is composed of different elements:
- An open modular bin, with a large capacity (85 cm wide) and which can be tilted vertically for the transport of long and high materials.
- A tilting rear door offers the possibility to easily load/unload the contents of the bin, especially bulk and rubble.
- Two large diameter motocross wheels and a small reinforced centre wheel make this an all-terrain machine.
- Two main wheels, each equipped with a powerful 1,500 W motor, ensure a range of 70 km or 4 days of use on average.
- A parking brake to guarantee safe parking.
Its innovation lies in a patented effort cancellation technology. This uses an intelligent system integrated into its handling handle. This on-board intelligence measures the user’s efforts in real time. The information is continuously transmitted to the electric motors, which adapt their power according to the slope, the weight being transported and the speed of the user. The user’s pulling forces are then cancelled out. It is therefore extremely easy and totally intuitive to operate. It stops automatically when the handle is released.
Offered for hire, the handling truck makes it possible to respond to various major challenges expected by professionals:
- Reduction of the arduousness and RSI.
- Limiting the risk of accidents at work.
- Rationalisation of transport to save time and improve productivity.
