February, 1925 MARINE REVIEW 13 If you could only talk to the operator of this electric industrial truck! If you could hop aboard and let him whirl you around the pier shed! Skim down the level floor, easily, quietly, as only an electric can. Then a ramp—a steep one, roughly floored. Up she goes, without a quiver, barely slackening the pace. Ask him what’s in his battery box. ‘An Exide-Ironclad,’”’ he’ll say. And plenty more he’ll tell you if you'll listen. Power! Power! Power! Plenty for the toughest kind of pulling, ready in an instant when the call comes. No matter what kind of electric industrial truck or tractor, there’s an Exide- Ironclad Battery that will take it al- most anywhere. AWAY SHE GOES WAY she goes, powered by an Exide- Ironclad Battery. In easy going this battery’s normal, economical flow of current gives it speed and power aplenty. A ramp, a stretch of cobble—any sud- den need for extra power—the Exide- Ironclad responds with a mighty flood of energy. It can deliver power at as much as twenty-eight times its nor- mal level-going rate. A great reservoir of truck-driving energy, this battery saves time and trouble on material- handling jobs—and dollars, too. On the last run of the day the oper- ator has all the speed he needs, with an Exide-Ironclad in the battery box. Not only when the battery is new, but month after month, for years on end. Even in the biggest truck or tractor, over floors and pavements that put the Exide IRONCLAD BATTERIES best equipment to the test, this rugged, rough-and-ready battery withstands the knocks and jolts. You’ll seldom find it on the repair bench. Men in charge of trucks and tractors equipped with the Exide-Ironclad Battery agree that recharging costs are exceedingly low. High power efficiency enables it to absorb current readily. To save you the trouble of hunting up a truck operator for the close-up facts on the Exide-Ironclad Battery, we have put them all into a booklet. A postcard to us puts this interesting booklet, ‘‘Facts for Consideration in Selecting a Battery for Electric In- dustrial Truck and Tractor Service,”’ on your desk.
