FAQs
What is the main advantage of the fat tyre?
The wide fat tyre provides enhanced grip and significantly improves stability on soft, muddy, or uneven ground by distributing weight more evenly and reducing the likelihood of the wheel sinking.
Is the tyre air-filled or solid?
The tyre is designed to be puncture-proof, meaning it is either a solid foam construction or a specialized air-filled tyre that prevents punctures, eliminating the need for traditional inner tubes.
How do I clean the plastic tub?
After emptying, rinse the tub with water. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap or detergent and a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or pads, as they can scratch the plastic surface.
What materials can I transport in this wheelbarrow?
This wheelbarrow is suitable for a wide range of materials including soil, compost, mulch, garden waste, manure, gravel, sand, and other general building or landscaping materials.
What does the lifetime warranty cover?
The lifetime warranty typically covers manufacturing defects and issues arising from normal use. It often includes free replacement parts, ensuring your wheelbarrow remains in good working order for its intended lifespan.
Can this wheelbarrow be used on hard surfaces like concrete?
Yes, it can be used on hard surfaces, but the primary benefit of the fat tyre is most apparent on softer, uneven terrains. It will still perform reliably on concrete or tarmac.
What is the maximum weight capacity?
While specific weight capacity isn't always listed, the 120-litre tub and robust steel frame are designed for heavy-duty agricultural and equestrian tasks, indicating a substantial load-bearing capability suitable for its size.
Troubleshooting
Wheelbarrow feels unstable when moving.
Ensure the load is centered evenly within the tub. Check that the wheel is correctly attached and that all frame bolts are tightened. If on very soft ground, the fat tyre should still provide good stability; ensure it is properly inflated if applicable.
Handles feel loose or wobbly.
Tighten the bolts or screws securing the handles to the frame. Ensure you are using the correct fixings and that they are fully engaged.
Plastic tub is difficult to empty completely.
Ensure the load is positioned correctly over the tipping point. The smooth plastic surface should facilitate easy emptying; if material sticks, try using a scraper or rinsing the tub.
Frame appears to be rusting.
The frame is zinc-plated for rust resistance. If minor surface rust appears, it can usually be cleaned off with a soft cloth and a mild cleaning agent. If significant corrosion occurs, contact customer support under the warranty.
Pros and Cons

- Durable and easy-to-clean plastic tub.
- Rust-resistant zinc-plated steel frame for longevity.

Cons
- Single wheel design may require more balance with extremely heavy or awkwardly distributed loads compared to double-wheeled barrows.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
The Agri Barrow wheelbarrow typically arrives partially assembled. Follow these general steps:
- Unpack all components and check against the parts list.
- Attach the handles to the frame, ensuring they are securely fastened.
- Mount the plastic tub to the frame, aligning the pre-drilled holes and using the provided fixings.

Compatibility:
This wheelbarrow is designed for general-purpose use in agricultural, equestrian, and gardening environments. It is compatible with most standard wheelbarrow accessories such as tipping stands or extensions, though always check specific dimensions if using third-party items.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: After each use, rinse the plastic tub with water. For stubborn dirt, use a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the plastic.
- Frame: Wipe down the zinc-plated steel frame periodically to remove dirt and moisture. Check for any signs of wear and address promptly.
- Tyre: The puncture-proof tyre requires minimal maintenance. Periodically check its inflation if it feels soft, though it is designed to maintain pressure.
- Storage: Store the wheelbarrow in a dry, sheltered area when not in use to protect it from extreme weather conditions and prolong its lifespan.
