Step 12)
Align Wheel Assembly -
IMPORTANT
. Slide the axle brackets inward
until they contact the wheel. Next slide the Wheel and Brackets left
& right until the wheel is centered between the handles. Keep the
axle brackets against the wheel.
Step 13)
Tighten the Axle Bracket Bolts - Completely tighten the axle bracket
bolts/nuts at this time, while keeping wheel assembly centered.
Step 14)
Tighten Remaining Hardware - Flip the wheelbarrow upright on a
flat surface. Completely tighten the (4) Cross Brace Bolts and (6) Tray
Bolts.
Step 15)
Check Tire Pressure and Grease Wheel - Check and adjust tire
pressure per indicated PSI on tire, using a tire gauge. Install grease
via the 1/4” grease fitting on the wheel hub. Wheelbarrow assembly
is now complete.
Note:
Flat Free Wheelbarrow Models - Flat Free Wheels will retain their
shape, however, if left under load for extended length of time, a
flat spot can develop. The wheel will go back to original shape af
-
ter use. But to avoid any inconvenience, do not store wheelbarrow
with materials in the tray for extended lengths of time.
Routine Maintenance:
• Hardware includes serrated flange nuts and nylon lock nuts
which resist loosening. It is best to routinely check hardware and
tighten as may be required.
• Install wheel grease periodically to keep axle and bearings
lubricated. This will also prevent rust formation on the steel wheel
parts.
• Check tire pressure with a gauge. Over inflation may cause
injury and tire damage. Under inflated tires will cause premature
wear. Check and adjust pressure using a tire gauge.
• Wood Handles are coated for weather resistance. Excessive ex
-
posure to sun and weather will cause deterioration. To maximize
handle life, recoat with a wood preservative as necessary.
