SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING
When using electric gardening appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to
reduce the risk of re, electric shock, and personal injury, including the following.
• Read, understand, and follow all instructions on your wheelbarrow’s label and in this guide. Be
thoroughly familiar with the controls and the proper use of your wheelbarrow before starting.
• Only allow responsible individuals who have a thorough understanding of these instructions to
operate your wheelbarrow. Never allow children to operate your wheelbarrow.
• Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may
obscure your vision.
• Wear shoes with non-slip treads. If you have safety shoes, wear them. Do not use your
wheelbarrow while barefoot or wearing open sandals.
• If you are ever unsure about an action you are about to take, please don’t do it.
• Thoroughly inspect the area where your wheelbarrow is to be used, and remove all stones,
sticks, wire, pet supplies or lawn toys, and any other foreign objects that you could run over.
Also note the location of holes, ruts, bumps, stumps, and other possible hazards.
• Use your wheelbarrow only in daylight or in an area well lit by articial light.
• Keep a rm hold on the handle, and walk — never run.
• Do not put your hands or feet near or under the rotating wheels.
• Never operate your wheelbarrow in the rain or in tall wet grass. Remember, this is an electric
wheelbarrow.
• Do not move in reverse unless absolutely necessary. When maneuvering in reverse, use
extreme caution. Always look down and behind you before moving backwards.
• Do not operate your wheelbarrow if it does not start or stop normally.
• Stay alert and watch what you are doing.
• Always be sure of your footing.
• Do not operate your wheelbarrow when you are tired or under the influence of drugs or
alcohol.
• Do not use your wheelbarrow for any job other than those for which it is intended.
• Use only manufacturer-recommended replacement parts and accessories.
• Do not modify your wheelbarrow in any way. Modications void your warranty.
• When operating over uneven terrain and slopes, use extreme caution to ensure solid and rm
footing.
• Do not pull your wheelbarrow backwards while running in forward gear. This can damage the
motor and ruin the gears.
• Prevent damage to the motor and gears – do not tow anything behind your wheelbarrow or
overload it.

SAFETY INFORMATION
• Evenly disperse the load in your wheelbarrow’s bucket.
• Use caution when travelling on slopes.
WARNING
Do not operate the wheelbarrow on the road.
• Do not operate across steep slopes; always travel up and down slopes.
• Do not use on slopes over 15 degrees.
• Park on level surfaces for stability when loading or unloading.
• Weight limit: 220 lbs (100kg) on level cement surfaces — overloading may cause injury and
could permanently damage unit.
• Only load with as much weight as you can control when machine is moving.
• Never carry passengers.
• Use only Greenworks batteries.
• Do not use if forward/backward button or power switch or safety button is not working
properly.
• Use caution when operating in wet conditions.
• Do not operate in explosive atmospheres such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gasses or ammable dust. If in doubt, wait for dust to settle before using.
• Be sure the area is clear of other people before moving. Do not allow children, bystanders, or
pets in your work area when your wheelbarrow is being moved.
• Do not charge appliance in rain, or in wet locations.
• Do not use battery-operated appliance in rain.
• Remove or disconnect battery before servicing, cleaning or removing material from the
gardening appliance.
• Use only the following type and size battery(ies): 29662/40V 4Ah Lithium-ion battery.
• Do not dispose of the battery(ies) in a re. The cell may explode. Check with local codes for
possible special disposal instructions.
• Do not open or mutilate the battery(ies). Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause
damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
• Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the battery with conducting materials
such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and cause burns.
• Dress Properly - Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving parts.
Use of rubber gloves and substantial footwear is recommended when working outdoors. Wear
protective hair covering to contain long hair.
• Use Safety Glasses - Always use face or dust mask if operation is dusty.
• Don't Force Appliance - It will do the job better and with less likelihood of a risk of injury at the
rate for which it was designed.
• Store Idle Appliance Indoors - When not in use, appliances should be stored indoors in dry,
and high or locked-up place - out of reach of children.

SAFETY INFORMATION
• Check Damaged Parts - Before further use of the appliance, a guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform
its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts, mounting, and any other condition that may affect its operation. A guard or other
part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center
unless indicated elsewhere in this manual.
WARNING
Never stand in the bucket to activate the Wheelbarrow.
MOVING ON SLOPES
WARNING
Slopes are a major factor related to slip-and-fall accidents, which can result in severe injury. All
slopes require caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not drive on it.
• Use caution on slopes. Whenever possible, move up and down the slope at an angle.
• Exercise caution when changing directions on slopes.
• Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, or any other potential object that your
Wheelbarrow could hit.
• Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Be careful on uneven terrain to avoid overturning your
Wheelbarrow. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
• When moving down slopes, always keep your Wheelbarrow in low gear and moving. The
friction of the motor helps you keep better control of your Wheelbarrow.
• Use caution when carrying heavy loads up slopes. If your Wheelbarrow is overloaded, the
safety fuse may trip and allow the Wheelbarrow to rollback toward you, which may cause
severe injury.
• Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn slowly and gradually.
• Do not move near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. The Wheelbarrow could suddenly
turnover if a wheel is over the edge of a cliff or ditch or if an edge caves in.
• Do not park your Wheelbarrow on hills or steep slopes.
CHILDREN
WARNING
This is not a toy. Children under 14 years of age are not allowed to operate it.
• Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not aware of the presence of children. Keep
children out of the work area and under the watchful care of a responsible adult. Stay alert,
and turn the Wheelbarrow off if a child enters the work area. Look behind and down for small
children before and while driving backwards. Use extreme care when approaching blind
corners, doorways, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may obscure your view of a child who
may run into the work area.

• Do not allow children under the age of 14 to operate this Wheelbarrow. Children who are 14
years of age and older must read and understand the operating instructions and safety rules
