Operating Your Cart-Tek 1500 V3 - Free-Wheeling ModeUpdated a year ago
Free-Wheeling Mode:
The Cart-Tek 1500 V3 golf trolley is equipped with a free-wheeling mode that allows for manual pushing without engaging the motors. This mode can be useful in certain situations. Here's additional information about free-wheeling mode and when it is beneficial:
• Purpose: Free-wheeling mode enables you to easily maneuver the trolley manually, providing flexibility and control in specific circumstances.
• Engaging Free-Wheeling Mode: To switch to free-wheeling mode, pull the main drive wheels out approximately 1/4 inch from the drive collar. This disengages the pins, allowing the wheels to rotate freely.
• Benefits of Free-Wheeling Mode:
1. Towing the Trolley: If you find yourself in situations where you need to tow or pull the trolley manually, such as in parking lots or on narrow pathways, free-wheeling mode allows for effortless navigation without any resistance from the motors.
2. Maneuvering in Tight Spaces: When encountering tight turns or confined areas, free-wheeling mode gives you greater control and the ability to make precise movements by manually guiding the trolley.
3. Conserving Battery Life: By utilizing free-wheeling mode when the motors are not needed, you can conserve battery power. This is particularly helpful during practice sessions or when not utilizing the motorized functionality.
• Duration and Distance Limitation: While free-wheeling mode provides an easy and efficient way to manually push the trolley, it is important to note that it's primarily intended for short distances. Avoid manually pushing the trolley for long distances, as it may strain the components and potentially cause damage.
• Switching Back to Motorized Mode: To switch back to motorized mode from free-wheeling mode, push the main drive wheels back into the drive collar until the pins engage fully. This enables the engagement of the motors for powered operation once again.
By understanding when and how to utilize free-wheeling mode, you can optimize the versatility and functionality of your Cart-Tek 1500 V3 golf trolley in various situations, enhancing your overall golfing experience.
