GENERAL INFORMATION
To ensure trouble-free vehicle performance, it is very important to follow an established preventive mainte-
nance program. Regular and consistent vehicle maintenance can prevent vehicle downtime and expensive
repairs that can result from neglect. Use the Pre-Operation and Daily Safety Checklist on page 10-1 and the
Periodic Service Schedule and Periodic Lubrication Schedule to keep the vehicle in proper working condition.
See Periodic Service Schedule on page 10-2.
See also Periodic Lubrication Schedule on page 10-4.
Any vehicle not functioning correctly should be removed from use until it is properly repaired. This will prevent
further damage to the vehicle and avoid the possibility of injury due to unsafe conditions.
Contact your local Club Car distributor/dealer to perform all repairs and semiannual and annual periodic service.
