USING
AS A PUSH CART
IMPORTANT:
Leave the latch lock clevis pin in place at
all times while using the cart as a push cart. The clevis
pin is shown in figure 1 on page 4.
To convert the cart for push operation, remove the 4"
long clevis pin and hairpin cotter which secure the
tongue in the towing position. (See drawing on page
8.) Pivot the front tongue into the storage position
underneath the rear tongue and secure it using the
same clevis pin and hairpin cotter. (See figure 5 on
page 5.) Place the plastic cap over the exposed end
of the tongue.
For best handling, and to help prevent accidental
tipping, distribute the weight of the load evenly in the
cart.
Do not load more weight into the push cart than you
can handle and control comfortably.
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.
