TRANSPORTING ON A TRAILER
∆
WARNING
• Turn fuel shut-off valve to the closed (OFF) position (Figure 15).
• Do not allow riders in the trailer being towed.
• Avoid sudden starts, sudden stops, and tight turns when towing.
• Avoid stopping on a hill when towing. If you must stop on a hill, avoid sudden starts or rolling
backwards and stopping suddenly. Failure to heed this warning could cause the vehicle to
overturn, possibly resulting in severe personal injury.
• Reduce normal driving speed when transporting a vehicle or trailer.
• For use on public roads, the trailer must meet all federal, state, and local requirements such
as taillights, brake lights, etc.
• Do not tow a Club Car vehicle behind a passenger vehicle or truck on a public road unless it is
on an approved trailer.
• The vehicle to be transported should be tied securely to the trailer, with the Forward/Reverse
handle in NEUTRAL, the key switch OFF, and the park brake firmly depressed and locked.
• Because of the added length of the trailer, use caution when making turns.
• Do not transport the vehicle on a trailer with a load in the vehicle cargo bed.
• Remove the vehicle windshield before transporting on a trailer.
If the vehicle must be transported over long distances or on public highways, it should be transported on an
approved trailer that has the following approved load rating per vehicle being transported:
Turf 1 1600 lb. (727 kg)
Turf 2 1600 lb. (727 kg)
Turf 6 2000 lb. (909 kg)
NOTE: A two-car trailer should be rated at 2 x 1600 lb. = 3200 lb. (2 x 727 kg = 1454 kg) for Turf 1 and 2,
or 2 x 2000 lb. = 4000 lb. (2 x 909 kg = 1818 kg) for Turf 6).
