2. ALWAYS secure and lock the utility cart to the vehicle hitch before operating.
3. ONLY use approved vehicles when towing the dump cart (Lawn/Garden Tractors and ATVs)
4. NEVER tow the utility dump cart with box raised.
5. DO NOT over fill the utility dump cart. Overflow loads can cause the cart and towing vehicle to lose traction and skid out of control.
6. ONLY fill the dump cart to a comfortable dumping load. Extremely heavy loads will be difficult to operate and dump.
7. ALWAYS use the dump cart for its intended purpose.
8. ALWAYS make sure that the tow vehicle and the combined weight of the operator are greater than the load of the cart weight for proper control.
9. DO NOT use cart on public highways or roads.
10. NEVER exceed 10mph when towing the dump cart.
11. DO NOT make sharp turns that may cause the Lawn/Garden Tractor or ATV tires to rub against the utility dump cart.
12. ALWAYS slow down before turning.
13. ALWAYS use caution when backing the utility cart. To avoid the cart from “jack-knifing” always back up in a straight line.

MAINTENANCE

• Maintain your dump cart. It is recommended that the general condition of any dump cart be examined before it is used. Keep your dump cart in good repair by adopting a program of conscientious repair and maintenance. Have necessary repairs made by qualified service personnel.
• After each use clean material out of the cart box.
• Rinse/dry inside and outside of the dump cart after each use.
• Before operating make sure the tires have the RECOMMENDED TIRE PRESSURE OF 25 PSI.
• Regularly grease the axle and the wheel bearing area or when needed.
• Periodically check all fasteners for tightness.
• Annually clean and lightly lubricate parts.
• Use a glossy enamel spray paint to touch up scratched or worn painted metal surfaces.
• Never exceed load capacity rating of 1200 lbs. (545kgs); doing so will damage the utility dump cart.

STORAGE

• Never allow material to remain in the utility dump cart for extended periods of time.
• Before storing make sure the cart is clean and dry.
• Store indoors or protected area during severe weather and winter months.
• When storing outside always keep the tongue a little higher than the back of the cart to allow the moister to easily run out the back and will not accumulate in the box.
