noTE: The maximum towing speed for this product is 10mph.

6.1.1 Do not exceed the 230kg weight capacity of the cart.

6.1.2 only tow the trailer/cart with recommended vehicles i.e. Lawn/

Garden tractors and small ATVs (All Terrain Vehicles) e.g.

Quadbike.

6.1.3 Ensure that the trailer cart is correctly connected to the towing

hitch on the vehicle and that the hitch pin is retained with the

'R' clip provided.

6.1.4 It is your responsibility to ensure that the towing vehicle is

adequate to tow the trailer and its load. Check that the brakes

are powerful enough. Check that the gross weight of the trailer

plus its load does not exceed the towing capacity of the

vehicle. The vehicle manufacturer’s recommended towing limit

should be in the vehicle manufacturer’s handbook.

6.1.5 Always ensure that the rear panel is in place before loading the

cart with loose material otherwise the sides may be pushed out

making it difficult to attach the rear panel.

6.1.6 Use extreme caution when operating the vehicle and trailer on

sloping land especially when the cart is filled to capacity. If in

doubt about stability in any situation, do not proceed.

6.1.7 for best handling and traction always ensure that the load is

evenly distributed in the cart.

6.2 to dump material from the cart.

6.2.1 To dump material from the cart firstly ensure that the cart is in

the right position and that no one is in the dumping area.

6.2.2 Remove the rear panel prior to dumping and stand clear of the

cart.

6.2.3 To tip the load, press the foot pedal. Gravity will ensure that a

full load is swiftly shed and therefore no parts of your body

should be in the way of the tipping container.

6.2.4 once the load is shed, take hold of the upper edge of the

container and pull it back down onto the trailer/cart chassis

until it latches back into the notch in the foot pedal lever.

6.2.5 Immediately refit the rear panel ensuring that the alignment

pins have engaged.

WARNING! Do not tow the trailer with the container in the

tipped position.

6.3 Use as a flat bed trailer.

be used as a flat bed for transporting items that are bigger than

the area of the trailer base such as fencing panels and other

sheet material.

6.3.2 Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity of 230kg.

6.3.3 over-sized loads must be properly strapped to the trailer/cart

to prevent them moving during transit.

6.3.4 Care should be taken when transporting over-sized loads that

items projecting from the trailer do not collide with people or

buildings and other fixtures and fittings such as gates and

doorways.

WARNING! It is not recommended that the trailer be towed

with the side and front panels folded down. Always remove the

panels to prevent them making contact with objects on the

ground especially in areas of rough terrain.
