NEUTRAL LOCKOUT
For the convenience of the trained technician, there is a neutral lockout switch located on the seat support
panel under the seat
(Figure 8) . The neutral lockout switch has two positions, MAINTENANCE and OPER-
ATE, which are clearly marked.
• Pedal-start vehicles: When the switch is in the MAINTENANCE position, it will allow the technician to
run the engine in the NEUTRAL position to perform certain maintenance and/or repair functions. With
the switch in this position, the vehicle will not operate if the Forward/Reverse handle is placed in either
the FORWARD or REVERSE position.
• Key-start vehicle: When the switch is in the MAINTENANCE position, it will allow the technician to run
the engine in FORWARD, REVERSE, or NEUTRAL for certain maintenance and/or repair functions.
However, if the Forward/Reverse handle is in either the FORWARD or REVERSE position and the
accelerator pedal is pressed, the engine will stop running.

WARNING
• With the switch in the MAINTENANCE position and the engine running, the vehicle may move
suddenly if the Forward/Reverse handle is shifted or accidentally bumped. To prevent this,
chock the front and rear wheels and firmly set the park brake before servicing or leaving the
vehicle.
NOTE: Pedal-start vehicle: Be sure to return the switch to the OPERATE position after servicing the vehi-
cle, or it will not run with the Forward/Reverse handle in either the FORWARD or REVERSE posi-
tion.
Key-start vehicle: The switch must be returned to the OPERATE position after servicing is com-
plete, or the engine will stop running when the accelerator pedal is pressed, and the Forward/
Reverse handle is in the FORWARD or REVERSE position.
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 vehi-
cle to ensure 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 be used daily to
ensure vehicle is in proper working condition and in conjunction with the Periodic Service Schedule on
page 27. Any problems should be corrected by your Club Car distributor/dealer or a trained technician.
