1. Using wheel barrow can reduce manpower lifting and back fatigue. They are usually the best choice for the following activities:
Loading and unloading bulky cargo;
Reduce the number of trips during the transportation of goods.
2. Choose a suitable wheel barrow during work, and determine the weight and size of the goods it can be used to carry:
The special wheel barrow is only used for special handling purposes (for example: a trolley with a bottom bracket can be used to carry round containers);
Determine your transportation route and remove any obstructions;
Wear gloves to get good friction;
Avoid wearing bulky, loose-fitting clothes, they will trip you and get hurt by the wheel barrow.
3. Use proper techniques to load and unload with wheel barrow
Bend your knees and straighten your back. Use your legs instead of your back to do this movement;
Don’t use too much force, otherwise the sudden lifting action will cause damage to your back.
4. Keep the balance and stability of the cargo when unloading
Heavier goods are placed at the bottom;
Do not exceed your line of sight when stacking a pile of goods;
Place the cargo toward the front end of the bearing, not exceeding the handle of the wheel barrow, and then carry heavy objects;
Make sure that the heavy object is stable and will not sway or tip over from side to side;
Transporting bulky or precision instruments must be bound and fastened.
