OVERVIEW OF OPERATION
The QuicKART is an electrically powered shopping cart collection machine. It has several
unique and patented features, which allow it to be used safely and simply in the shopping
cart collection process.
The QuicKART is a productivity-enhancing tool, which will be most effective when it is well
maintained and used responsibly. Training of employees is very important. Please read
and review this manual. We strongly recommend that a training and operator certification
program be developed and implemented to assure adequate training and safe operation.
The QuicKART provides the pushing power for a single employee to safely and easily
move a maximum of 30 shopping carts from the parking lot into the store. Its ability to
operate in Radio Mode allows a single employee to steer the chain of carts from the front
of the cart line while controlling the QuicKART as it pushes and follows from behind.
The QuicKART has proven its ability to work in all types of weather ranging from extreme
heat or cold to rain and snow. The QuicKART will operate dependably in winter weather
as cold as -20 degrees. It will also push carts through loose snow. On packed snow the
QuicKART M3 and M3 HD will push 10 to 20 carts. Winter operation can be enhanced
with the use of optional snow tires.
The QuicKART operates on a 36-volt battery system. It will operate for up to ten hours on
a single charge. Cold weather will reduce operating time. It will require eight to ten hours
to fully recharge the batteries. Storing and charging the QuicKART in a warm area will
increase the operating time.
