Abstract: An ability to move a wheelbarrow without lifting the rear part of the wheelbarrow is achieved by attaching a handle adapter that extends upward from the rearwardly extending handles of the wheelbarrow. Further, a converter kit converts a conventional single wheeled wheelbarrow into a three wheeled device. The handle adapter is a tubular construction and can be easily detached from the wheelbarrow. In one embodiment of the converter kit, a plate and a hollow tube are attached to generally U shaped resting arms for easy assembly and disassembly of auxiliary wheels. A second embodiment of the converter kit includes a clamp for easily adjusting the auxiliary wheels of the wheelbarrow.
