3/8-16 X 2-3/4” capscrew through the clevis and tongue
from the side opposite the box catch handle. Place the
box catch spring over the end of the capscrew and secure

hook of the box catch spring is then placed over the tongue

Lubrication
The dump cart has two standard sized grease fittings, one
on each wheel, which require occasional lubrication with
general purpose automotive grease. Before lubricating,
wipe each grease fitting to prevent grit and dirt from being
carried into the bearings with the new grease. Lubricate
all pivot points arid the box catch clevis with SAE-10 oil
frequently.
Tires
The tires of the dump capt are inflated for shipping with
pressure in excess of the normal amount. For normal
lawn use deflate the tires until a pressure of 6-8 lbs. P. S. I.
is reached. When carrying heavy loads, or when used with
the vacuum collector, it will be necessary to increase this
pressure, to 14-16 lbs. P. S.I. to prevent damage to tires
or wheels.
Operation
The dump cart is designed to easily haul 1, 000 lbs. of any
type of material and has a 7 cubic ft. capacity struck and
10 cubic ft, heaped. The box can easily be unlatched with
out detaching from the tractor and can be turned completely
upside down by tilting up and back to empty all contents
without shoveling. The tailgate is detachable.
