How far and how fast can a full tank be safely pulled?Thanks!

Depends on the quality of your tank.usually i pull just at a coyple of mph on gravel @5 and up on pavement. Most dump sites are within a quarter mile or less

we pull ours thru rv parks from site to dump station 5 to 10 mph... mile, mile and a half at most. it is designed just for that purpose, so u dont have to move camper off of site to empty tanks.

We have been pulling by hand,- we go from camp site to dump station............ so guess it would depend on how far that would be for you.. Safe isn't an issue. More, how much energy do you have. Full it is heavy. The additional handle that you can buy is definitly worth it as it enables one to stand straight rather than stoop. It is a good product. They say one can pull behind car/truck as well. We have never had that great of a distance where we felt it necessary. We do like it. And would buy again.

We only went 5-10 mph and only as far as the dump station in the campground maybe a quarter mile. But it held tight!

I got mine yesterday and after putting it together I hauled it with the base on just 20 feet out into the back yard. In my house this requires a slightly tricky turn near the back door and three steps down to the drive. I'm a 40 year old, fairly robust guy and I gotta say this one haul kind of wore me out and afterwards I was thinking I need to keep it in the garage instead of the house for easier movement. I don't think a 70 yr old would stand a chance. As others have said you can unhook the two springs and take the tube off and carry it in two separate trips but even the 40lb base might be a bit much for a senior. I would say go with the XT6 or smaller model instead. I got mine yesterday and after putting it together I hauled it with the base on just 20 feet out into the back yard.

Time to take some measurements. The throat opening on the puller is 1.250 and the outer shell at the bottom inside corner radius is 3", looking at the posted picture for reference. The puller definitely can pull it if it fits your application. Hope this helps.

I mounted the minnkota 45 lb thrust on an 18' Smokercraft. It weighs about 650lbs empty. It pushes it at 2.7mph on full speed.i only bought it to troll with. I have a Walmart battery and at 40% thrust it lasts about 6 hours. That is with about 450lbs of people. Including my dog. Be sure you get the Endurance max as the variable speed is priceless.

26 minutes, more or less. While the actual delivery volume is affected by residual tank pressure, a full E tank at service pressure holds about 660 L; so (660 l/25 lpm) = 26.4 minutes. If you want a time to empty on an E tank with some other pressure, you could use this rough equation: Time to empty (E-tank) = (0.35 x psi on gauge)/(L/min to be delivered). So a time to empty for an E @ 500 psi for 25 lpm would be 7 minutes. Now, the question is why someone would be wanting to run at 25 lpm in the first place! :)

It could take from 15 to 30 minutes to pull 5 gallons out....the unit is best for relatively small amounts (i.e. one or two gallons).......hope this helps (PS I use it to empty the tank on my jet ski)...very best regards,Don

I have only used mine for about two hours total so far, for melting lead, and used less than a quater of a 20 pound tank according to my tank scale. So a full tank should last arround 8 hours.

holds about 120lbs - I've towed both my 10yr old and 3yrd old at the same time (150lb total) and it was OK just hard to pull. no sagging. I wouldn't go beyond this though.

The load range is max 1,300lbs. the tires seem to be well balanced, I pull my boat at 60-70 mph with no bouncing are vibration. the tires have very good tread, they most likely will dry rote before the tread is gone, but I rub mayo on my tires to keep the rubber soft. Hope this help!

I got a bit over two miles on a tank! Tank hold a little less than 1/2 gallon. 8ft Avon inflatable

AFTER I purchased it the instruction thing said, "Not for towing." -Basically it is for bike racks etc only. In my case, when I received it, I threw it to the side till I needed it to find this out. (well past any return time)I do not know the answer to the weight it can pull. Sorry.

It depends on how fast you want it to pull. The basic equation is energy in = energy out minus efficiencies. I would expect this motor to be able to pull at least 100 lb. laterally at with an RPM of around 1200RPM or thereabouts.

Now that you mention it this is probably why I'm so slow. I also pull a buggy. I'm not sure but it's solid. Maybe the same as a brick. Sorry can't be exact.

I'm very happy & satisfied with Hangkai 2 cycle boat engine. I guess It's manufactured by (Generic) a well known Company for Generators & other equipment here in USA... As far as 12 miles a hour -- it's a stretch..Depends on the weight of your boat, occupants and gear, --- In very still waters -- I would bet it will exceed 7 mph easily... How about this for thought: Engine will run on full Throttle for like 2-3 hours on 1 tank of fuel & you will be very far from home.... For the Money it's a great value vs, prices of other boat engines... Like you, I was hesitant about purchase, turned out to be a great fun & investment. Frank

Not sure what you mean by safely, but from the face of the roller guide to the end of the hose is about 49 feet. Its a full 50' foot hose before they crimp the ends on. It seems to have the same pulling power fully retracted to fully extended when reeling back up. But with any self retracting hose reel ALWAYS hold onto the end of the hose when retracting till fully retracted. This is for safety reasons and the spring on the reel will last a lot longer too.

Use the hand transmitter to steer it. Mine sank before I could run it full blast. So, I really don't know how fast it can go. Thank you. Tom Kiebler

I've pulled other ATV 4-wheelers out of some fairly crappy spots. It's only rated for 1500 pounds and I've tugged nearly 1000 pounds with mine. For an inexpensive winch they work good but they're not bullet proof.
