Multigear system (401-ME)
In 2006, ElCargo launched its revolutionary multigear mechanical tarp system, the 401-ME, making it possible to open and close the trailer tarp from the ground. Since then, ElCargo mechanical systems have gained in popularity day after day. With its front installed hand crank, the 401-ME virtually eliminates the need for the operator to climb on the frame deck or the trailer. Thanks to ElCargo’s systems, you can reduce the risk of accidents to almost nothing.
Like all mechanical tarp systems from ElCargo, the 401-ME can be fitted to almost any open roof trailer. It offers the same benefits as all ElCargo systems: waterproof, easy and quick to operate, and most of all, it allows you to save fuel by as much as 14.93%.
