PRE-OPERATION AND DAILY SAFETY CHECKLIST
Each Club Car vehicle has been 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
each vehicle to ensure that it is in proper working condition before accepting delivery.
Use the following checklist as a guide to inspect the vehicle. This checklist should be used daily to ensure that
the vehicle is in proper working condition and in conjunction with the Periodic Service Schedule on page 23.
Any problems should be corrected by a Club Car 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 all hose clamps for tight fit as well as 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. Visually inspect tires for wear, damage, and proper inflation on a
daily basis.
• Battery:
Check electrolyte to ensure that it is at its proper level
(Figure 17, Page 26). Check battery
posts. Wires should be tight and free of corrosion. See Vehicle Specifications – DS Golf, Four-Pas-
senger, and DS Box Bed Vehicles on page 30 or Vehicle Specifications – Lynx Vehicle on
page 31.
• Engine: Check for proper engine oil level. See Engine Oil on page 27.
• Fuel: Check fuel level. See Fueling Instructions on page 28. Check fuel tank, lines, cap, pump, fuel
filters, and carburetor for fuel leakage.
• Exhaust system: Check for leaks.
