How to Put Together a Jackson Wheelbarrow
Jackson Professional Tools concentrates on designing non-powered landscaping tools for professionals and homeowners that will last a lifetime. All of the tools Jackson produces are heavy-duty and made of heavy-gauge steel and solid wood components. All wooden components are sealed and ready to face the elements. Fill the tray with heavy loads because Jackson wheelbarrows can handle it. Even though their tools are heavy-duty, they are extremely easy to assemble, and assembly requires only a few tools. Does this Spark an idea?

Attach leg assembly to the "Jackson" name plate. Set this assembly aside for now.

Place the metal axle rod through the middle of the wheel assembly. Place the wheel assembly between the handles near the bolt holes by the bumper area. Lay the axle brackets over both sides of the axle and line the bolt holes together. Thread the nuts onto the bolds after sliding a washer over each bolt and tighten the nuts with a ratcheting wrench. Flip the assembly over.

Stack the handlebars on top of the leg assembly, followed by the wooden tray wedges (lined up over the front handle bolt holes) and the heavy-gauge seamless steel tray. Line all of the bolt holes up and pass a bolt through each set of holes to attach each piece together. The bolt head should remain in the steel tray. Place a washer over each bolt and thread a nut over each bolt as they emerge through the handles. Tighten the nuts with a ratcheting wrench.

Line the holes in the steel front tray braces up with the holes in the handles and in the front of the steel tray. Pass bolts through each hole and back them with a washer and thread a nut onto each bolt until they are hand-tight. Tighten each nut with a ratcheting wrench.

Fill the tire with air using an air compressor and a tire chuck, or bring the tire pressure up to the recommended level [about 10 PSI (pounds per square inch)], if required.
