pin and hairpin cotter to secure the plastic cap to the
leg stand bracket.
2. Refer to the vehicle owners manual for instructions on
safe operation on slopes.
3. Use the slope guide on page 9 to determine whether
the slope angle is too steep for safe operation.

towing and braking capabilities whenever hauling a
substantial amount of weight in your cart. Use extra
caution when operating on slopes.
IMPORTANT!
Do Not Exceed 300 Lb. Weight Capacity Of Cart
One cubic foot of dirt weighs approximately 80 lbs.
CAUTION: Vehicle braking and stability
may be affected with the addition of an
accessory or an attachment. Be aware of
changing conditions on slopes.
5. For best handling and traction, distribute the weight of
the load evenly in the cart.
6. To dump material from the cart, remove the 1" long
clevis pin from the latch on the tongue and release the
latch. The cart bed will then tilt backwards to empty its
contents. After emptying, pull the front of the bed down
toward the cart tongue until the latch snaps into place.
Reinstall the clevis pin in the latch to prevent accidental
release of the latch.
