Getting to know your DV-8
Your DV-8 is a fully remote control machine that in perfect conditions will be
operable up to 100 meters away, as such always use your machine responsibly,
respecting other players games and health and safety. In crowded areas such
as car parks, use the manual control rather than the hand set. We recommend
using the machine no further away than 50 meters.
Using as a standard electric trolley
Your DV-8 has fixed wheels which enable braking, you are therefore, in
normal use, unable to push your trolley. Instead you need to use as a manual
electric trolley. After setting the machine up, press the control knob down
once, the LED on the machine will flash to show manual operation (solid
for remote). Rotating the control knob clockwise will increase the speed,
anti-clockwise will decrease speed. Should you need to push the machine
manually at any time you will need to disengage the two main wheels from
the inner “locked” position to the outer “freewheel” groove. This is done by
sliding the black “pip” on the outer of the central hub on each wheel whilst
pulling outwards. Ensure the wheel clicks into the outer axle groove. To use
your DV-8 electronically you must have the wheels in the engaged position
on the inner groove of the axle.
Remote Control
Once you are in a safe open and appropriate area you can start to use remote
control. Press any button once on your handset, this will turn the handset
on and immediately take over from manual control. Take time to practise
and perfect controlling your machine before you are playing in an important
match. Please note that the DV-8 will react differently with a fully loaded bag
so practise with your golf bag fitted. The handset automatically powers off
after 45 seconds if no button is pressed.
