Battery wheelbarrow with a brushless motor: it moves up to 130 kg around the apiary without you carrying them.
What limits it is not the kilos, it is the ground. A hundred and thirty kilos is a full hive and then some, or half a day's feed. What decides whether the barrow works in your apiary is what it has to cross: slope, long grass, mud and loose stone.
01 · 130 KG, AND THE LIMIT IS THE GROUND
The Makita brushless motor gives two speeds and reverse with an audible warning, which in an apiary with people around is not a small detail. The hand brake lets you go down a slope controlling the load instead of holding it with your body.
The rear wheels adjust for height and carry a foot brake, so the barrow can be left standing on a slope while you open a hive. The handle adjusts to three heights, and that is what keeps you from working bent over all morning.
02 · TWO BATTERIES AND A TWIN CHARGER
It ships with its platform for loading and carrying, two lithium batteries and a twin charger. It is a closed kit: nothing needs adding to start working.
If you already work with tools on the same battery platform, the ones you have will serve too; check the model before counting on them.
03 · BRAKES, REVERSE AND ANTI-TIP
It has an anti-tip mechanism that holds the tub or the platform so it cannot swing over by accident when released. With a populated hive, that is the difference between a move and a lost afternoon.
The whole thing is built with the XPT protection the maker declares against dust and water, meant for outdoor work. It is still an electric machine: not one to push through a puddle, but a day in the field will not stop it.
04 · BEFORE YOU BUY
It saves your back; it does not save impossible ground.
