What maintenance is required for the wheels of my utility cart?

Regularly check the tire pressure and inspect for any wear or damage. Lubricate the wheel bearings periodically to ensure smooth operation and replace the tires when tread wear becomes significant.

How can I troubleshoot a wobbly wheel on my utility cart?

First, ensure the wheel is securely attached. Check the bearings for wear and replace if necessary. Inspect the axle to ensure it is straight and not damaged. Tighten any loose bolts that may be causing instability.

What is the recommended way to clean the utility cart?

Use a hose to rinse off dirt and debris. For stubborn stains, use a mild detergent and a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a cloth to prevent rusting. Avoid using harsh chemicals that may damage the cart's finish.

How do I safely store the utility cart when not in use?

Store the utility cart in a dry, sheltered location to protect it from the elements. Ensure it is on a level surface and locked in place to prevent rolling. Cover the cart with a tarp to keep it clean and dry.

Adjust the hitch height to match your tractor's hitch point. Ensure that the hitch pin is the correct size and securely fastened. Check for any obstructions or misalignments that may be causing the issue.
