To ensure the longevity and safe operation of a stainless steel manual trolley across different application stages, follow these detailed precautions:

1. During Transportation and Installation

Gentle Handling: Avoid dragging or dropping the trolley to prevent dents or structural damage.

Secure Installation: Ensure all screws, nuts, and bolts are tightly fastened during assembly to prevent loosening during use.

Load Capacity Verification: Confirm the trolley’s load rating (light, medium, or heavy-duty) and avoid exceeding it to prevent structural failure.

2. During Daily Use

Avoid Overloading: Exceeding the specified load capacity can strain the trolley’s frame and wheels, leading to premature wear.

Smooth Movement: Push or pull the trolley steadily, avoiding sudden jerks or sharp turns that could destabilize it.

Environmental Protection: Keep the trolley away from corrosive substances (e.g., acids, salts) and extreme temperatures, which can accelerate rust or warping.

Surface Care: Use soft, non-abrasive cloths for cleaning to prevent scratching. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or steel wool.

3. In Storage

Dry Environment: Store the trolley in a dry, well-ventilated area to prevent moisture buildup, which can lead to rust.

Protective Covering: If stored outdoors or in dusty environments, use a waterproof cover to shield it from the elements.

Isolation from Hazards: Keep the trolley away from sharp objects, heavy machinery, or chemicals that could damage its surface or structure.

4. During Maintenance

Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the trolley with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and dry immediately to prevent water spots or rust.

Lubrication: Apply a light machine oil to moving parts (wheels, axles, hinges) every 3–6 months to ensure smooth operation.

Rust Removal: Address rust spots promptly with a stainless steel cleaner or baking soda paste. Rinse and dry the area afterward.

Component Inspection: Check wheels, handles, and joints for wear or damage. Replace worn parts immediately to avoid accidents.

5. In Specialized Environments (e.g., Food Industry)

Sanitation Compliance: Use food-grade cleaning agents and ensure the trolley is thoroughly dried after washing to prevent bacterial growth.

Corrosion Resistance: Opt for 304 stainless steel, which is more resistant to acidic or alkaline environments common in food processing.

6. During Long-Term Storage or Disuse

Full Cleaning: Before storing, clean the trolley thoroughly to remove dirt, grease, or chemicals that could cause corrosion over time.

Lubrication Preservation: Lubricate moving parts before storage to prevent seizing during prolonged inactivity.

Elevated Storage: If possible, store the trolley off the ground to avoid moisture absorption from the floor.
