| Structural Components |
- Main Steel Frame: Provides structural support for carcass loading and transportation.
- Scoop-Style Loading Base: Provides a low entry section for positioning beneath or alongside the carcass.
- Two Main Wheels: Carry the primary load during transport.
- Third Support Wheel: Supports the frame and improves stability during handling.
- Offset Axle: Improves ground clearance and load distribution.

| Working Principle |
The cart is positioned close to the carcass and the scoop-style loading section is aligned with the animal. The operator uses the loading mechanism and frame leverage to draw the carcass onto the cart. The offset axle helps distribute the load, while the third wheel supports the frame and improves stability. The loaded cart can then be pushed or pulled to the designated mortality collection, storage or disposal area. |
