Product Information
Full details
The Carrimore Twin Wheelbarrow is designed for gardeners and heavy-duty users who need a stable and robust solution for moving materials. Its key benefit is enhanced stability due to the twin-wheel design, reducing strain and risk of tipping. A potential consideration is its larger size, which may require more storage space when not in use, though it can be stored upright. Key features include a 200-litre capacity, a durable polypropylene tray, a heavy-duty galvanized frame, ergonomic grips, and options for pneumatic or puncture-proof wheels.

Can this wheelbarrow be stored easily?
Yes, it is designed to be stored upright, which helps to save space in your shed or garage.
What type of wheels are available?
You can choose between pneumatic (air-filled) tires for a smoother ride or puncture-proof solid tires for increased durability and reduced maintenance.
What warranty is included?
The wheelbarrow comes with a 5-year warranty and a lifetime guarantee on the wheel bearings.
How do I maintain the wheel bearings?
The steel centre wheels feature a lifetime bearing guarantee, meaning they are designed for long-term, maintenance-free operation under normal use.
What materials is the tray made from?
The tray is constructed from durable polypropylene, which is resistant to impact and weather.
Troubleshooting
Wheelbarrow feels wobbly or unstable.
Ensure all bolts and connections, especially on the frame and wheel axles, are securely tightened. Check that the wheels are properly seated.
Tires are losing air (pneumatic wheels).
Check for punctures or leaks. Ensure the valve stem is secure. Inflate to the recommended pressure indicated on the tire sidewall.
Tray or frame shows signs of rust.
Clean off any dirt or moisture. Apply a rust inhibitor or a thin coat of oil to affected areas. Store in a dry environment.
Handles feel loose.
Tighten the bolts securing the handles to the frame. Check for any wear or damage to the handle material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: If purchased unassembled, follow the provided instructions carefully to attach the frame, tray, handles, and wheels. Ensure all bolts are securely tightened before first use.
Compatibility: This wheelbarrow is designed for general garden and yard use. It is compatible with standard garden materials. Choose between pneumatic tires for a cushioned ride or puncture-proof tires for maximum durability and minimal maintenance.
Care: Clean the tray and frame after each use with a damp cloth to remove soil and debris. Store in a dry place, preferably upright, to prevent rust and prolong its lifespan. Periodically check tire pressure if using pneumatic wheels and ensure all fittings remain tight.
