FAST Global Solution's Walk-Behind Belt Loader features easy, safe operation at a fraction of the cost of drivable belt loaders. FAST eliminated the drive components to increase the unit’s longevity, lower maintenance requirements and reduce costs for air travel and cargo handling industries. The towable units keep packages and luggage moving as fast as 100 feet (30 meters) per minute without sacrificing control. The belt operates at variable speeds in forward and reverse for easy loading and unloading without repositioning the machine. A tiller arm, which can be stowed with the unit when not in use, makes precisely maneuvering the machine into place easy. This enhanced maneuverability helps reduce the risk of aircraft strikes. Dual controls add to the ease of operation, allowing the operator to control the loader from either end. FAST’s Walk-Behind Belt Loader also increases safety and lessens liability when compared to drivable units. Its stable, low profile design eliminates the possibility of overturning or tipping. Operators can stop the unit with any of the five stop buttons placed around the perimeter.
