Usage Features:

Dump Feature: The cart is equipped with a dumping release handle. Pulling this handle forward releases the tray from its locking mechanism, allowing the user to lift and rotate the tray upward into the dumping position for easy unloading.

Assembly: The cart requires assembly, with an estimated time of 30 minutes. Tools required include a Phillips screwdriver and a metric socket set (or two adjustable wrenches).

Maintenance Features:

Pre-Use Inspection: It is recommended that the cart be inspected for damage before each use to ensure all parts are in good working condition.
Tire Maintenance: The pneumatic tires require proper inflation, and users are warned not to inflate them beyond 30 PSI (2.07 BAR) to prevent damage.
Part Replacement: In case of damaged, broken, or missing parts, users are instructed not to use the cart until replacement parts have been obtained. Replacement parts can be ordered online at www.tricam.com or by calling customer service.
Cleaning: While not explicitly detailed, regular cleaning of the tray and frame would contribute to the longevity of the cart, especially after transporting materials that could cause corrosion or buildup.
Storage: Storing the cart in a dry, protected area when not in use can help prevent rust and material degradation.
