Frequently Asked Questions

Condux Tesmec offers a wide selection of cable pullers and accessories to meet the demand of underground, as well as overhead cable pulling applications. The PM1450 provides up to with 22,500 lbf (100 kN) pulling power to tackle a comprehensive range of pulling applications. For underground pulling applications, the PM1450 is ideally suited for the installation of power transmission and distribution cable installation, telecom and fiber.

The unit is completely self-contained and is easily transported from jobsite to jobsite. The unit is now available in as a track mounted model. The integrated track mount provides operators the ability to maneuver the unit in tight working conditions and easily position the puller for optimum pulling performance. Further, the tracks create less ground disturbance and allow the unit to work in wet, sandy or muddy soils. The PM1450 comes standard in a DOT-certified trailer mount configuration.

Designed to improve productivity and efficiency, the PM1450 offers industry leading features like negative self-acting hydraulic brakes, hydraulic cooling systems, advanced user controls and more.

The PM1450 features a new digital interface with a 7-inch color display and integrated pull and speed recorder. A radio remote control provides total user machine control while integrating with the new digital HMI providing automatic power management and full safety controls.

The advanced systems provide utility contractors maximum pulling control, while improving safety and adding productivity to every job site. Condux Tesmec pullers are the most reliable and user-friendly units in the industry.
