PRE-OPERATION AND DAILY SAFETY CHECKLIST
Each Club Car vehicle is thoroughly inspected and adjusted at the factory; however, upon receiving your new
vehicle(s), you should become familiar with its controls, indicators, and operation. Carefully inspect the vehicle
to be satisfied that it is in proper working condition before accepting delivery.
Use the following checklist as a guide to inspect your new vehicle. This checklist should also be used daily to
ensure vehicle is in proper working condition and in conjunction with the Periodic Service Schedule on
page 24. Any problems should be corrected by your Pioneer distributor/dealer or a trained technician.
• General: All the parts should be in place and properly installed. Be sure that all nuts, bolts, and screws
are tight. Check hose clamps for tight fit and the starter belt for tightness.
• Safety and information decals: Check to ensure that all safety and information decals are in place.
See pages 4 and 5.
• Tires: Check for proper tire pressure on your new vehicle. Visually inspect tires for wear, damage, and
proper inflation on a daily basis. See Vehicle Specifications on page 32.
• Battery: Before using vehicle for the first time, check electrolyte to ensure it is at the proper level
(Figure 19, Page 30). Check battery posts. Wires should be tight and free of corrosion and battery
should be fully charged. Check that terminal covers are in place and in good condition.
• Engine: Check for proper engine oil level. See Engine Oil on page 27.
• Fuel: Check fuel level. See Fueling Instructions on page 29. Check fuel tank, lines, cap, pump, fuel
filters, and carburetor for fuel leakage on a daily basis.
• Exhaust system: Check for leaks.
• Hydraulic brakes: Check fluid level. See Master Cylinder on page 27.
PERFORMANCE INSPECTION
After you have familiarized yourself with the vehicle’s controls and have read and understood the driving
instructions, take the vehicle for a test drive.
Use the following checklist as a guide to inspect your new vehicle and check daily for proper operation. Any
problems should be corrected by a Pioneer dealer or a trained technician.
• Forward/Reverse shifter: Check for proper operation. See Controls and Indicators on page 9.
• Brakes: Be sure the brakes function properly. When brake pedal is fully pressed under moderate pres-
sure, it should not go more than halfway to the floor, and vehicle should come to a smooth, straight
stop. If the brake pedal goes more than halfway to the floor, or if the vehicle swerves or fails to stop,
have the brake system checked and adjusted as required. When brake pedal is fully pressed under
heavy pressure, pedal should feel firm and foot pad should be a minimum of 2 inches (5.1 cm) from
floor. Brake adjustment must be maintained so the brake pedal cannot be pressed to the floor under
any circumstance.
• Park brake: Apply moderate pressure to park brake handle. Tension should increase as the handle is
pulled. When latched, the park brake should lock the wheels and hold the vehicle stationary (on an
incline of 20% or less).
• Reverse buzzer: The reverse buzzer should sound as a warning when the Forward/Reverse handle is
in the REVERSE position.
• Steering: The vehicle should be easy to steer and should not have any play in the steering wheel.
• Accelerator: After starting the engine with the key switch and placing the Forward/Reverse handle in
the FORWARD position, the vehicle should accelerate smoothly to full speed as the accelerator pedal
