With its optimized balance and straight front wheel the caddy has extraordinarily narrow and responsive
turning and maneuvering abilities. However, it sometimes tends to react to uneven weight distribution of its
load or slope variations and will follow the weight and the slope of the golf course, which is normal for
electric caddies. Therefore, please make sure that the weight in your bag is distributed evenly (move heavy
balls and items to both sides equally and to the upper part of your bag, or shift the bag on the caddy). Also,
when operating your caddy by remote control anticipate the slope of the course in order to avoid frequent
corrections in direction. In some extreme environments, such as very uneven terrain, steep hills, narrow and/or
sloped cart paths, muddy areas, gravel paths, close to bunkers and hazards, around bushes, roots and trees it is
recommended to operate the caddy via manual control in order to prevent any collisions, damage or the need
for complicated correction adjustment maneuvers. When operating the caddy often in bumpy terrain we
recommend to add an additional bungee strap to the lower and/or upper bag support to give the golf bag
additional hold and prevent it from shifting.
Please avoid or minimize operation on hard and rough surfaces, such as cart paths, asphalt roads, gravel roads,
roots etc., as this will cause unnecessary wear and tear on tires, wheels and other components. The caddy is
best operated on soft and smooth surfaces such as fairways.

General Maintenance
The steps below will ensure that you get a prolonged and reliable life out of your Bat-Caddy.
1)
The Caddy has been designed so that the user can concentrate on playing golf, while the caddy does the work of
carrying your bag. In order to keep your Bat-Caddy looking at its best, we advise that you wipe any mud or grass
from the frame, wheels and chassis after every round with a damp cloth or paper towel.
2)
Do
NOT
use hoses or high-pressure jet washers to prevent moisture entering the electronic systems, motors or gear
boxes of the caddy.
3)
Remove the rear wheels every few weeks and clean out any debris that might cause the wheels to drag. You might
also apply some lubricant, such WD-40 to keep moving parts smooth and corrosion free.
4)
A 4-5 hour round of golf played once a week for 12 months is equivalent to ca. four years use of a lawn mower, so
please inspect your cart at least once a year thoroughly, and if you notice any symptoms of wear, contact your
Bat-Caddy Service Center. Alternatively, you can have your caddy inspected and tuned by our Service Center, so it’s
always in great shape for the new season.
5)
Always disconnect the battery when you store the caddy, and always put your caddy together before re-connecting
the battery. If you are not planning to play for at least a month, store the battery in a warm and dry place (not on
concrete floor) and don’t leave it on the charger.
All of these recommendations and common sense will help keep your Bat-Caddy in top condition and ensure that it
remains your reliable partner, both on and off the links.
