Avoid operating the trolley under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Keep the trolley away from water, including puddles and rain whenever possible. Safe Use of Your Trolley Use in open areas to familiarize yourself with the controls. Be cautious of the surface you are operating on. Do not aim the trolley at other people or objects. Always keep the trolley within your line of sight. Battery Safety and Handling Charge the battery fully before first use. Use only the provided charger. Do not expose the battery to extreme temperatures. Do not submerge the battery in water. Disconnect the battery before storing the trolley for long periods of time (1 week or more) TROUBLESHOOTING Trolley veers to one side: Ensure both drive wheels are fully engaged and the weight distribution is even. You may need to "trim" your motors if the golf bag is balanced, but still veering off to one way in trolley mode. It is best to adjust the trimming of your motors on a wide open, flat fairway if possible. First, go into Programming mode With the cart and remote turned on, press and hold cruise control button 1, and then within one second press and hold the lock/unlock button, both together. The cart will move forward signifying you are in programming mode. You can release both buttons. The remote will flash once, twice, three times. While the trolley is moving forward, you can adjust using the left and right buttons accordingly. Once the trolly is adjusted to going straight, press the stop button twice. This will temporarily save the adjustments that you've just inputted. Now you can test your adjustments by operating the trolley and verifying the adjustments are satisfactory. Once you have confirmed the changes, and would like to permanently save these adjustments, you need to go into program mode once more to confirm the changes. Press and hold button one, and then within one second press and hold the lock/unlock button, both together. Once the trolley moves forward press the stop button twice. If you have accidentally made programming adjustments, but have NOT gone back into programming mode again, you can simply unplug your battery and restart your trolley to not save the changes you've made. To Perform a factory reset: With the cart and remote turned on, press and hold cruise control button 1, and then within one second press and hold the lock/unlock button, both together. The cart will move forward signifying you are in programming mode. You can release both buttons. Press the reverse arrow. The Trolley will stop withing .5 seconds. If the trolley continues to move, this means you have NOT going into programming mode correctly. Stop the trolley with the stop button and try again. Tap cruise control button 1, then 2, Lock/unlock button, and then tap the stop button. You have now reset to factory settings, clearing out any trimming adjustments or cruise control speed settings you have made. You are now back in remote control operation mode and can continue to use the trolley. Battery not charging: Check connections and ensure the charger is plugged into an earthed socket. Ensure the LED lights on the battery are illuminated. If they are not, this would indicate that the battery cable going to battery is not a good connection. Ensure the battery charger LED is illuminated. If it is not, try a different outlet or test that the outlet has power.

It will speed up a little bit, but shouldn't run away down the hill. If you need the caddy to slow down, simply tap the reverse arrow, and the trolley will start to slow down. CONSIDERATIONS: The Formula Remote can be operated remotely by up to 100-200yards. The remote's range is affected by many factors. It is best to operate the trolley withing 30 yards, and allow for line of sight between the remote control and trolley. The trolley is equipped with a safety feature where if the trolley and remote loose contact with each other, the trolley will come to a stop. It is the user's responsibility to ensure that they have control of the trolley at all times. If the trolley is accidentally activated, it is the user's responsibility to ensure that it does not go into hazards regardless of the remote range and safety feature. When approaching a steep hill, it is recommenced to slow down the trolley. This allows for the trolley to maintain better control when ascending or descending steep hills. Never put an unlocked remote in your pocket. Accidental button presses will send the trolley off to possibly dangerous situations. To lock the remote, tap the lock/unlock button.

Slope Control: The slope control technology is an onboard, 9-Axis sensor that is utilized by the trolley to track along the intended point of aim. It is an automated steering assistant, which can help correct drift from side slopes, or bump/humps in the fairway. When you are using the remote control, this feature is always activated. When you are using the trolley mode, the feature is not activated. FREE-WHEELING MODE: BEST FOR: If you have a need to push your trolley manually. IE, your trolley is out of battery power.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE Cleaning Guidelines. · Never under any circumstances should you hose down your trolley, (garden hose, pressure washer, etc). · To clean the trolly first remove the large debris with a cloth or air compressor. · Wipe down the trolley with a clean, damp microfiber cloth collecting the contaminants. · Regularly check and clean the wheels and axles to ensure they turn freely. · Bag Weight Distribution Tips. Optimal performance is achieved with an evenly weighted cart bag. Ensure the weight is even from side to side to prevent unnecessary trolley drift. If using a carry or stand bag, you · may need to adjust the weight by moving your items in the pockets around, or even add weight for better balance. When you plug your charger into the battery, the battery LED's will illuminate signifying you have a good connection between the battery charger and the battery.

After completing a full charge cycle (5 blue LED's on your battery and green LED on your charger), unplug the charger from the wall, and then disconnect the battery from the charger. Recharge the battery after each use and avoid leaving it uncharged for extended periods. Charge every 60-90 days during inactivity. Tracking Correction.

Battery Maintenance Instructions. · Never leave the battery in an uncharged state. Always recharge the battery after every golf outing, even if you only go out for 9 holes. · The proper charging sequence is to plug your battery into your charger first, and then plug the charger into the wall. Lubrication Recommendations. · The rear wheel axles need to be lubricated regularly. · Remove the rear wheels by depressing the spring clip and at the same time pull off the wheel. · Wipe clean the axle with a rag, and apply Petroleum Jelly or light lubricant to the axles. Use a very small amount as the grease can attract sand. · If you play in sandy conditions you should clean the axle and re-lubricate ever other week. TIPS FOR OPTIMIZING PERFORMANCE Terrain-Specific Performance Tips. Flat Ground: Maintain a steady walking pace and adjust the trolley speed accordingly. Hilly or Undulated Terrain: Use remote control mode to activate Slope Control. Steep Inclines/declines: Switch to trolley mode for better control. Help balance the trolley to prevent tipping. When possible go straight up or down the hill, as opposed to traversing across the hill slope. This provides the most stability for the cart. Safety Precautions and Operational Advice.
