What is the “Safe Working Load Rating”?
The Safe Working Load Rating is the maximum weight
that can be loaded onto one (1) cart (the maximum
weight includes the weight of the cart itself - 1000lbs).
It is extremely important that the load placed on any
A-Frame cart does not exceed the applicable Safe
Working Load Rating. Overloading can lead to failure
of the A-Frame cart potentially causing damage to
the item(s) loaded on it and possible severe personal
injury or death. Charts provided on the next page
outline the typical weights of various sizes of glass and
acrylic as well as the maximum number of pieces of
material that can be placed on either side of the cart.
If you are unsure about the safe working load rating
for the A-Frame cart you have purchased contact us at
1.877.778.5911.
Safe Operation and Use of this Small
A-Frame Cart
1. When lifting materials on and o of the A-Frame
cart use proper lifting techniques to avoid
personal injury.
2. Ensure work area is clean and well lighted while
loading and unloading the A-Frame cart.
3. It is important that the cart is positioned
on a level oor that is clear and dry and free of
debris. If the cart is not positioned on a level
oor, loads placed upon or removed from it
could fall, potentially causing damage to the
item(s) loaded on it, and possible severe personal
injury or death.
4. It is extremely important that the load placed
on any A-Frame cart does not exceed the
applicable Safe Working Load Rating. Be sure
that when loading the cart it is done in a
balanced fashion for both sides of the cart. Never
fully load only one side of the cart. Overloading
can lead to failure of the A-Frame cart, potentially
causing damage to the item(s) loaded on it, and
possible severe personal injury or death.
5. Never move the cart with a load on it without
strapping the load to the cart using the straps
provided. These straps are provided for your
safety. Never remove these straps form the cart
for any reason. When loading the cart ensure that
the strap is moved out of the way of the load.
This will ensure that the strap is accessible to
secure the load in place once loading is complete.
6. When moving the cart be sure to stand clear
of the sides of the cart. During movement loads
can become unstable and shift, potentially
causing damage to the item(s) loaded on it, and
possible severe personal injury or death. Always
move the cart by either pushing or pulling from
the A-Frame end of the cart. A tongue is provided
at one end of the cart to allow the cart to be
pulled by a vehicle. Please ensure that when
being pulled by a vehicle that the cart is securely
attached to the vehicle using properly rated
towing straps and associated attachments.
7. Regularly inspect ALL connection bolts to ensure
that they remain tight. Tighten any loose bolts if
found during inspection.
8. Regularly inspect casters and plastic bumpers for
damage and/or excessive wear and replace as
necessary.
9. Regularly inspect ALL load straps for any fraying,
tearing or damage. Contact Athletica Sport
Systems at 1.877.778.5911 immediately for
