Caring For Your C-TUG®Cart
Thanks for purchasing a Quality, New Zealand Made C-TUG Cart
The C-TUG is designed for the movement of watercraft. It is specically not designed for
the movement of people either directly on the cart, or in or on watercraft or other objects
placed on the cart.
Due to the harsh and abusive environment where this product may be used, we suggest
the following steps be taken to extend the life of your C-TUG;
• After using your C-TUG in salt water, or sandy/dusty conditions remove the wheels,
disassemble the chassis and hose down with fresh water. Wash the axle area
thoroughly
• Do not clean with solvents or solvent based products, and avoid commercial
cleaning products, fresh water is best for cleaning C-TUG components
• When portaging in hot, dry or dusty conditions it is recommended that you spray
axles with water regularly to avoid overheating in the axle area
• Each time you t the wheels to your C-TUG ensure the axle is clean and free of sand
or debris
• Do not leave your C-TUG cart in strong sunlight for extended periods. Your C-TUG
is designed for use outdoors but both rubber and thermoplastics will degrade if
left in strong sunlight for long periods.
Your C-TUG Cart is a robust, quality product designed to take the hard work out of getting
your watercraft to and from the water. With reasonable care you can expect it to serve
you well for many years. There is a 2 year warranty against manufacturing defects on the
SandTrakz wheels, and a 5 year warranty against manufacturing defects on standard Kiwi
Wheels and all other parts. Please refer to our website www.c-tug.com for more details
and information on how to make a warranty claim.
NOTE: Load should not be stored for long periods on SandTrakz wheels.
Wheels must be washed to remove sand from axle area after each use.
C-TUG encourages users of C-TUG products to observe safe practice procedures when
using products in marine environments.
