Half a ton of bark chip on the drive, a felled ash to move down to the log store, a lawn's worth of scarified thatch — all of it is technically barrow work, and all of it turns into an afternoon of walking backwards and forwards with a tenth of the load. If you already have a ride-on or a garden tractor sitting in the shed, you have the pulling power to do it in a handful of trips instead. The SP22136 is the thing to put behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e317kg, and a bed that actually holds it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rated capacity is \u003cstrong\u003e317kg (700lb)\u003c\/strong\u003e, in a steel bed measuring \u003cstrong\u003e122 x 77.5 x 47cm\u003c\/strong\u003e — a genuine \u003cstrong\u003e14 cu.ft\u003c\/strong\u003e of space. Those two numbers matter together. Plenty of trailers quote a healthy weight rating on a shallow tray, which is fine for gravel and useless for anything bulky; 47cm of side depth is what lets you fill it with logs, prunings or bagged compost and still be nowhere near the limit. It is roughly four to five barrow loads in one trip, and you are riding rather than pushing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTip it with your foot, not your back\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnloading is where a trailer either saves you time or quietly gives it back. The SP22136 tips on a \u003cstrong\u003efoot-pedal release\u003c\/strong\u003e, so you pull up where the load needs to go, step on the pedal and the bed does the work. No shovelling out, no dragging the tailgate off with your hands full. For loose materials — soil, compost, gravel, chippings — that is the difference between a two-minute job and a twenty-minute one, and it is the reason a tipping trailer is worth the modest premium over a fixed-bed cart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOff-road tyres, because gardens are not car parks\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe trailer runs on \u003cstrong\u003e16-inch (450-8) pneumatic off-road tyres\u003c\/strong\u003e. Solid wheels are cheaper and they are fine on a yard, but the moment you take a loaded trailer across soft turf they sink in and start tearing the surface. Pneumatic tyres of this size float over wet lawn, ruts and rough tracks, and they spread the weight enough that you are not left with a pair of tramlines to repair afterwards. Towing is via a simple \u003cstrong\u003ehitchpin and hole\u003c\/strong\u003e arrangement, so it will go behind most ride-on mowers, garden tractors and compact tractors without adaptation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a smallholding, paddock, estate and large-garden machine. Moving logs from where the tree came down to where it will be seasoned. Getting a delivery of topsoil from the drive to the beds. Clearing an autumn's leaf fall in three trips. Carting fencing materials, feed, tools and rubble out to wherever the work is. At \u003cstrong\u003e52.4kg\u003c\/strong\u003e empty it is substantial enough to feel solid under load, and light enough to reposition by hand when it is empty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spectrum SP22136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum load capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 317kg (700lb)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBed volume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14 cu.ft\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBed dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 122 x 77.5 x 47cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOverall dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 168 x 83 x 92cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTyres:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16″ \/ 450-8 pneumatic off-road\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTipping:\u003c\/strong\u003e foot-pedal operated\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTowing:\u003c\/strong\u003e hitchpin and hole\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNet weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 52.4kg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGross weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 55.4kg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePacked dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128 x 44.5 x 30cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 years\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBacked for five years\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpectrum machinery carries our \u003cstrong\u003e5-year warranty\u003c\/strong\u003e — unusual in a category where two years is the norm, and a fair reflection of what a steel trailer with no engine and no electronics ought to last.
