Drive system
Directional change control switch
The Gator™ TE Utility Vehicle features a motor powered by a 48-V electrical system.
Through the use of a separately excited controller, the Gator TE offers the following unique features:
Power is transferred through a transaxle with helical gearing for low gear noise.
Onboard battery charger (detail)
Battery charger located under passenger seat
The Gator™ TE is equipped with an Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL) approved onboard charger. Located under the passenger seat, the onboard charger allows the user to charge their TE from any location containing a wall receptacle. This saves the user time, as they do not have to travel back to the maintenance area for charging; charging can be done anywhere.
The onboard charger is designed with a wide input voltage range from 85 - 265 VAC, making it capable for worldwide application. Power factor correction and 12A maximum current draw ensures the charger will work reliably from any power outlet in the world, even through surges and sags.
Improved run time
The onboard charger features advanced temperature sensor technology that improves the information flow coming in and out of charger. The batteries are allowed to charge more fully than they were ever able to before; this can improve run time by up to 75 percent (depending on use cycle).
Important safety features of the charger are as follows:
LED indicator
Lift LED indicator to access IEC connector
The Gator TE is equipped with an external AC input IEC connector on the driver side of the vehicle to allow the flexibility of where the charger cord is stored. There is a multicolor LED indicator for low charge, more than 80 percent charge, full charge, or fault.
Side-by-side seating
Many of the Gator™ TE's standard features offer the operator and passenger a smooth, comfortable ride.
Walk-through platform
The Gator TE's controls and improved walk-through platform provide easy entry/exit for both operator and passenger.
Deluxe cargo box (TX 4X2 shown)
Deluxe cargo box, tailgate lowered (TX 4X2 shown)
The deluxe cargo box consists of a 15 percent glass-filled polypropylene composite material that eliminates rust and dents and reduces noise.
Tailgate handle
Tailgate lowered to 150 degrees
The tailgate can be opened or removed for easier cleanout and to carry longer items. The tailgate has been improved, features truck-like performance, and can be operated with one hand.
The standard installed lanyards can also be removed to lower the tailgate to 150 degrees for convenient loading and unloading tasks.
Integrated handle for manual cargo box tilt
Gas assist (A) and prop rod (B) (TX 4X2 shown)
The deluxe cargo box is easier to latch, unlatch, raise, and lower with the integrated handle design and gas assist (A). Optional factory- or dealer-installed cargo box power lift is also available.
A prop rod (B) is provided to hold the box in the upright position for operator convenience, as well as limit box pivot travel.
Integrated tie-down point in cargo box bed
Additional tie-down points (TH 6X4 shown)
The deluxe cargo box offers integrated tie-down points for increased versatility. Tie-down points are located in the following areas:
Deluxe cargo box converted to a flat bed
The deluxe cargo box easily converts to a flat bed. The flatbed configuration allows loading larger cargo.
NOTE: Cargo box shown on Gator TX. Gator TE rear axle configuration is different.
Brake light and taillight
Bed mat protects the steel floor from dents
Optional accessories for the deluxe cargo box include:
