B
TOWING
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or
death:
Use extra caution when towing a vehicle.
DO NOT ride on the vehicle being towed.
DO NOT attempt to tow the vehicle with
ropes, chains or any device other than a
factory approved tow bar.
DO NOT tow the vehicle on highways.
DO NOT tow a single vehicle at speeds in
excess of 12 mph (19 kph).
DO NOT tow more than three vehicles at a
time.
DO NOT exceed 5 mph (8 kph) while tow-
ing multiple vehicles.
DO NOT use the tow bar system on slopes-
more than 10% garde.
Place key switch in ’N’ and the Run/Tow switch in the
‘TOW’ position prior to towing the vehicle to prevent
damage to the electric motor and controller.
Do not tow a single vehicle at speeds in excess of 12
mph (19 kph). Do not tow more than three vehicles at a
time. Do not exceed 5 mph (8 kph) while towing multi-
ple vehicles. The maximum slope that the tow bar sys-
tem can be used is 10% grade. Towing the vehicle
above the recommended speed may result in severe
injury and/or damage to the vehicle and other property.
Tow bars are not intended for road use.
If a vehicle is towed in excess of 15 mph the motor brake will
engage and slow the vehicle down.
This vehicle is equipped with a ‘Run/Tow’ switch located
underneath the seat on the passenger side. The ‘TOW’
position, with the key switch in the ’N’ position, allows
the vehicle to roll freely without activating the warning
beeper and eliminating potential damage to controller or
motor. Check to see that vehicles to be towed are
switched to the ‘TOW’ position and the key is turned to
the neutral (’N’) position.
Never use ropes or chains to tow vehicle(s). Tow bars
are available from the E-Z-GO Service Parts Depart-
ment.
Tow bars are not intended for highway use. Before tow-
ing, place the direction selector in neutral (N) and make
sure that the ’Run/Tow’ switch in ’TOW’. Do not ride on a
vehicle being towed. Tow bars are designed to tow only
one vehicle at a maximum speed of 12 mph (19 kph)
and up to three vehicles at a maximum speed of 5 mph
(8 kph). Return the Run/Tow switch to the ’RUN’ position
and make sure the key is turned to ’OFF’ and removed
after towing the vehicle.
The RUN/TOW switch should always be returned to the ’RUN’
or (on CE vehicles) position after towing the vehicle. If
the switch is left in the ’TOW’ or (on CE vehicles) position
for an extended period of time it will drain the batteries.
The run/tow switch (8) is located under the seat on the
passenger side of the vehicle (Ref. Fig. 5).
