Motorised wheelbarrows are motorised vehicles designed for easy transport of heavy loads on difficult terrain such as construction sites, agricultural fields and forest areas. They are distinguished by their robustness and ability to operate on slopes and uneven surfaces.

A motorised wheelbarrow operates on the basis of an engine, which can be either combustion or electric, and a transmission system that transfers power to the wheels or tracks, in the case of tracked motorised wheelbarrows, enabling movement.

Internal combustion motorised wheelbarrows are equipped with petrol or diesel internal combustion engines. The power delivered by these engines allows them to tackle heavy work and operations on particularly difficult terrain. Battery-powered electric motorised wheelbarrows, on the other hand, use electric motors powered by batteries and are quieter in operation, making them ideal for use in noise-sensitive areas or indoors.

Motorised wheelbarrows are designed to carry heavy loads with capacities ranging from 100 to 1000 kg. The load capacity is influenced not only by the motor power but also by the strength of the chassis and the type of body used. Motorised wheelbarrows can have different gears in order to adapt the speed and power of the vehicle to the specific conditions of the terrain and the load being transported. In addition, these vehicles are suitable for working on very steep terrain with gradients of up to 35%.

Electric or combustion engine motorised wheelbarrows can be equipped with wheels or tracks. Wheels are ideal for relatively even terrain and allow for greater speed of movement, while tracks offer better traction and stability on rough and muddy terrain.

Motorised wheelbarrows offer numerous advantages over traditional manual transport methods such as non-motorised wheelbarrows. The main advantages of motorised wheelbarrows include:

• Efficiency and productivity: Motorised wheelbarrows allow large quantities of material to be transported in less time than manual methods. This increase in efficiency translates into greater productivity, especially in professional contexts where time is a critical factor.

The fuel consumption of a motorised wheelbarrow depends on the model and type of engine used. Petrol engine motorised wheelbarrows usually consume more fuel than electric ones.

• Petrol engine wheelbarrows: consumption varies between 1 and 2 litres per hour, depending on the motor power and intensive use.
• Electric motorised wheelbarrows: consumption depends on the battery capacity and the efficiency of the electric motor; a full charge can last from 4 to 8 hours of use, varying according to the model and type of terrain.

However, we must also specify that the consumption of motorised wheelbarrows depends on factors such as the following:

• Type of terrain: rough or sloping terrain increases fuel or energy consumption.
• Load carried: a heavier load requires more energy to be transported, affecting consumption.
• Maintenance: a well-maintained motorised wheelbarrow consumes less than a neglected one.

The weight of a tracked power barrow varies depending on the model and technical specifications.

• Lightweight tracked power barrows: weigh between 100 and 200 kg, ideal for light work and transport on flat terrain.
• Heavy tracked power barrows: these can weigh up to 500 kg or more and are designed for intensive work and transport on difficult terrain.

The following factors have a decisive influence on weight:

• Load capacity: motorised wheelbarrows with greater load capacity tend to be heavier.
• Materials: the use of sturdy materials such as steel increases the overall weight.
• Accessories: the presence of additional accessories such as tipping bodies or hydraulic systems contributes to the total weight.

A motorised wheelbarrow is a versatile vehicle used mainly in agriculture, construction and gardening to transport heavy materials such as:

• timber
• soil
• gravel
• sand
• bricks
• other building materials.

The main advantages of using a motorised wheelbarrow include the following:

• Efficiency: reduces the time and effort required to move heavy materials.
• Versatility: suitable for different types of terrain and applications.
• Safety: reduces the risk of accidents associated with manually lifting and transporting heavy loads.

The load capacity of a motorised wheelbarrow depends on the model and technical specifications. In general, we can say that:

• Lightweight motorised wheelbarrows: have a load capacity of between 100 and 300 kg, suitable for small transport jobs.
• Heavy motorised wheelbarrows: can carry up to 1000 kg or more, ideal for intensive work and transport on difficult terrain.

Obviously , the load capacity of a motorised wheelbarrow depends on factors such as:

• Body size: a larger body can hold a greater volume of material.
• Frame structure: a sturdy frame supports heavier loads without deforming.
• Type of traction: tracked power barrows can carry heavier loads than wheeled ones, thanks to better weight distribution.

We can group motorised wheelbarrows into three different width ranges:

• Standard motorised wheelbarrows: the average width is between 60 and 80 cm, making them suitable for passing through narrow doors and corridors.
• Tracked power barrow: these can be wider, with dimensions ranging from 70 to 100 cm to ensure greater stability on uneven ground.
• Compact motorised wheelbarrows: designed for confined spaces, they can be around 50 cm wide.

Motorised wheelbarrows are not designed for use on public roads. They are machines intended primarily for use on construction sites, agricultural land, gardens and other private areas.

In many countries, including Italy, motorised wheelbarrows are not approved for use on the road and cannot be registered. This is because motorised wheelbarrows often lack the safety requirements for road use, such as lights, indicators and adequate braking devices.

However, there are exceptions to what we have just stated:

• Temporary transport: in some cases, they can be transported on the road using a trailer or a special vehicle.
• Private areas: they can circulate freely in private areas and company premises where the same regulations as on public roads do not apply.
