Troubleshooting

Wheelbarrow is difficult to tip

Ensure the load is balanced and positioned correctly towards the front. Check that the tipping plate is clear of debris. Verify that the frame is not obstructed.

Wheel feels wobbly

Check and tighten the axle nuts securing the wheel. If the issue persists and the wheel bearings are within warranty, contact customer support for replacement.

Frame seems unstable when loaded

Confirm that the heavy-duty frame and steel support tray are intact and undamaged. Distribute the load evenly within the tub and avoid overloading beyond its capacity.

Rust appears on the frame

Clean the affected area and apply a suitable metal paint or protective coating. Ensure the wheelbarrow is stored in a dry environment to prevent further rusting.
