Pre-Operation and Daily Safety Checklist
•
Park brake:
When latched, the park brake should lock the wheels and hold the vehicle stationary (on an incline of
20% or less). It should release when either the accelerator or brake pedal is pressed.
•
Reverse buzzer:
The reverse buzzer will sound as a warning when the Forward/Reverse handle or switch is in
the REVERSE position.
•
Steering:
The vehicle should be easy to steer and should not have any play in the steering wheel.
•
General:
Listen for any unusual noises such as squeaks or rattles. Check the vehicle’s ride and performance.
Have a Club Car distributor/dealer or a trained technician investigate anything unusual.
•
Accelerator:
With the key switch in the ON position and the Forward/Reverse switch in the FORWARD position, as
the accelerator pedal is pressed, the motor should start and the vehicle should accelerate smoothly to full speed.
When the pedal is released it should return to the original position. All Club Car vehicles operate at reduced
speed in reverse.
•
Walk Away Braking:
With the vehicle parked on level ground and the park brake disengaged, place the Tow/Run
switch in the RUN position and attempt to push the vehicle. Motor braking should engage and cause resistance to
rolling (moving at no more than 1 to 3 mph) (1.5 to 4.8 km/h) with the Forward/Reverse switch in any position.
When walk away motor braking is engaged, the reverse buzzer should emit a distinct pattern of beeps.
See
following WARNING.
WARNING
• Walk Away Braking will not limit vehicle speed to 1 mph (1.6 km/h) on very steep grades. Do not
operate vehicle on slopes exceeding 20% grades.
Excel System Vehicles
•
Motor Braking:
Accelerate down an incline with the accelerator pedal fully pressed. When the vehicle reaches
maximum programmed speed, motor braking should engage and limit the vehicle to its maximum programmed
speed.
See following WARNING.
On very steep grades, the vehicle may slightly exceed its maximum programmed
speed, requiring the use of the brake pedal. Also, travel downhill with the accelerator pedal partially pressed. Motor
braking should limit speed to less than top speed and maintain speeds proportional to the accelerator pedal
position. On a level surface, accelerate the vehicle to full speed and then release the accelerator pedal. Motor
braking should smoothly slow the vehicle to a complete stop or else allow the vehicle to coast freely, depending on
the selected controller setting.
WARNING
• When batteries are fully charged, a warning buzzer will sound during motor braking to alert the driver
that motor braking is operating at a reduced level of performance. When this occurs, use the brake
pedal to control vehicle speed.
IQ System Vehicles
•
Pedal Up Motor Braking:
Accelerate the vehicle to full speed and then release the accelerator pedal. Motor
braking should quickly and smoothly slow the vehicle to approximately 11 mph (17.7 km/h). Motor braking will
disengage when vehicle slows to 11 mph (17.7 km/h).
See preceding WARNING.
•
Pedal Down Motor Braking:
Accelerate down an incline with the accelerator pedal pressed. When the vehicle
reaches maximum programmed speed, motor braking should engage and limit the vehicle to its maximum
programmed speed. On very steep grades, the vehicle may slightly exceed its maximum programmed speed,
requiring the use of the brake pedal.
See preceding WARNING.
