4. Setup Instructions

4.1. Unfolding the Wagon

1. Place the folded wagon on a flat, stable surface.
2. Gently pull the sides of the wagon outwards until the frame fully extends and locks into place.
3. Press down on the center of the wagon's base to ensure it is fully expanded and stable.

4.2. Attaching the Fabric Body (if separate)

The fabric body is typically pre-attached. If it needs to be secured, ensure the fabric is correctly aligned with the frame and fasten any clips or zippers provided.

4.3. Inflating the Tires

The 9-inch balloon tires may require inflation upon first use or periodically. Use the provided air pump:

1. Locate the valve stem on each tire.
2. Attach the air pump nozzle securely to the valve stem.
3. Pump air until the tires are firm but not over-inflated. Refer to the tire's sidewall for recommended pressure (typically low pressure for balloon tires).
4. Remove the pump and secure the valve cap.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: The Oxford fabric body can be spot cleaned with mild soap and water. For thorough cleaning, the fabric may be removable (check specific model instructions). Allow to air dry completely before folding or storing.
• Tire Care: Regularly check tire pressure and inflate as needed using the provided pump. Inspect tires for any punctures or damage.
• Frame Inspection: Periodically check the carbon steel frame for any signs of damage, loose bolts, or corrosion. Tighten any loose fasteners with the provided wrench.
• Storage: Store the wagon in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prolong its lifespan.

7. Troubleshooting

• Wagon is difficult to pull:
  - Check if the load exceeds the 600lb capacity. Reduce weight if necessary.
  - Ensure tires are properly inflated. Low tire pressure can increase resistance.
  - On extremely soft or deep sand, even wide wheels may require more effort. Try to pull with consistent momentum.
• Wheels are not turning smoothly:
  - Inspect wheels for any debris (sand, small stones) that might be obstructing rotation.
  - Check if the wheel axles are clean and free of rust. Lubricate if necessary.
• Wagon does not fold or unfold easily:
  - Ensure the central locking mechanism (push-up point on the base) is fully engaged or disengaged.
  - Check for any fabric or items caught in the folding mechanism.
