The turrets prevent the enemy lane from gaining ground. Once you push some they have no way to push back unless they can out range the turrets or risk taking damage. At level 3 turrets he gets two of them which can allow him to nearly lock down a 2v1 lane even if the jungler comes to gank effectively forcing the laning foe to stay out their tower. Combined with promote heimerdinger can push a 2v1 lane out from under a tower to force an early recall and ultimately prevent jungle ganks since the jungler has to protect this tower or risk losing it. By destroying minion waves quickly he can effectivly push.

Some of those reasons are why hes a "pusher"
