ENGLISH
OPERATION
After the tractor cart assembly is complete, consult the
towing vehicle manufacturer's instructions to connect
or hitch the tractor cart to the towing vehicle.
When loading material in the tractor cart:
• Place heavier items in the bottom of the tractor cart,
and toward the front (closer to the towing vehicle
and cart tongue).
• Place lighter, smaller items near the rear and on top.
• Secure loose material in the tractor cart.
If backing up the tractor cart while attached to a
towing vehicle, reduce speed and braking to avoid
jackknifing the tractor cart.
Tow Cart
1. To convert the cart from push to tow:
(See figure 13 on page 6.)
a. Remove the 3/8 in. x 3 in. clevis pin (U) and
hairpin cotter (X) from the front tongue.
b. Pivot the front tongue outward and secure it
in the towing position using the 3/8 in. x 3 in.
clevis pin (U) and hairpin cotter (X).
2. Refer to the vehicle owners manual for
instructions on safe operation on slopes.
3. Always test to make sure your tractor has
adequate towing and braking capabilities
whenever hauling a substantial amount of
weight in your cart. Use extra caution when
operating on slopes .
WARNING: Do Not Exceed 300 lb (136 kg) weight
capacity of cart. One cubic foot of dirt weighs
approximately 80 lbs (36 kg).
CAUTION: Vehicle braking and stability may be affected
with the addition of an accessory or an attachment. Be
aware of changing conditions on slopes.
4. For best handling and traction, distribute the
weight of the load evenly in the cart.
5. To dump material from the cart, remove the
1-3/4 in. long clevis pin (T) 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.
6. The maximum towing speed for this cart is
5 mph (8 km/h).

Push Cart
WARNING: Leave the clevis pin in the latch lock at all
times while using the cart as a push cart.
1. To convert the cart from tow to push:
(See figure 13 on page 6)
a. Remove the 3/8 in. x 3 in. clevis pin (U) and
hairpin cotter (X) from the front tongue.
b. Pivot the front tongue into the storage
position underneath the rear tongue and
secure it using the 3/8 in. x 3 in. clevis pin (U)
and hairpin cotter (X).
2. For best handling and to help prevent accidental
tipping, distribute the weight of the load evenly
in the cart.
3. Do not load more than you can handle and
control comfortably (no more than150 lbs
(68 kg)).
4. To dump material from the push cart, lift up on
the handle and tilt the cart forward. Be sure that
the latch mechanism on the tongue is locked
and secured with the clevis pin to prevent
accidental release of the latch.
