Performance Inspection
After you have familiarized yourself with the operation of all the controls of the
39 Roadster
eGC
and have read and understood the driving instructions, take the
vehicle for a test drive.
Use the following checklist as a guide to inspect the vehicle and check daily for
proper operation.
Any problems or deficiencies you may find should be corrected at once by an
authorized
American Custom Golf Cars, Inc.
dealer/distributor or a trained technician.
Check For:
Forward – Neutral - Reverse Switch:
Check for proper operation.
Brakes:
Be sure the brakes function properly. When the brake pedal is depressed under
moderate pressure, it should not reach to the floor of the
39 Roadster
eGC
.
When properly adjusted, the golf cart should come to a straight, smooth, stop within
20 feet. If the vehicle swerves, or fails to stop within 20 feet, have the brake system
checked and adjusted. The brake adjustment must be maintained so that the brake
pedal cannot reach the floor when depressed.
The hydraulic disk brake actuator should be greased monthly to ensure that it
is clean and that it can slide smoothly so that the brakes will operate
smoothly without binding up.
Park Brake:
When in use, the park brake should lock the wheels and hold the vehicle stationary.
It should automatically release when either the accelerator or brake pedal is
depressed.
Steering:
The vehicle should not have any play in the steering wheel and it should steer easily
without obstruction.
Accelerator:
When the key switch is in the “
ON”
position and the “
Forward–Neutral-Reverse
Switch
” is in the “
Forward”
position, as the accelerator pedal is depressed, the
motor should start and the vehicle should smoothly come up to full speed.
When the pedal is released it should return itself to the original or “zero” position
and the motor should stop.
General:
Listen for any unusual squeaks or rattles. Check the vehicle’s ride and performance.
Have an
American Custom Golf Cars, Inc.
distributor or dealer or a fully trained
technician investigate anything unusual.
