The Power Wheelbarrow is equipped with left and
right steering levers on the handle bars to make
steering easy. To turn left or right pull left or right
lever.
The steering sensitivity is dependent upon the speed
the machine is travelling, the weight it is carrying,
and the adjustment of the steering levers. The more
weight the machine is carrying the more pressure it
will require to turn.
The powered wheelbarrow has a maximum capacity
of 660lbs. However, it is advisable to assess the load
and adjust it according to the ground on which the
machine will be used.
Under heavy loads, or on softer ground, it is
recommended to turn with ease at slower speeds to
limit the damage to the ground.
When operating on hard, rough, uneven, or frequent
changes in terrain type avoid sharp turns or fast
changes in direction to avoid tipping and injury to the
operator or machine.
Remember to be careful when working in adverse
weather conditions (ice, heavy rain and snow) or
on types of ground that could make the machine
unstable.
When the clutch control lever is released, the machine
will stop and brake automatically.
If the machine is stopped on a steep slope, a wedge
should be placed under one of the wheels in case of
brake slippage.
After engine warms up, adjust the throttle to down to
allow the engine to warm up.
Engage the required gear and slowly squeeze the
clutch control lever.
OPERATING
Set throttle control lever to its “SLOW” position to
reduce stress on the engine when work is not being
performed. Lowering the engine speed to idle the
engine will help extend the life of the engine, as well
as conserve fuel and reduce the noise level of the
machine.
IDLE SPEED
For safety and prevention of transmission damage
the transmission may not engage after shifting
gears the first time you engage the clutch. Slowly
release the clutch and try again. This will engage the
transmission for operation.
To stop the engine in an emergency, simply turn the
engine switch to the OFF position. Under normal
conditions, use the following procedure.
1. Move the throttle lever to the SLOW position.
2. Let engine idle for one or two minutes.
3. Turn the engine switch to the OFF position.
4. Turn the fuel valve lever to the OFF position.
