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
or steep downhill slopes, 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. Avoid hitting the brakes at elevated speeds going downhill. It
is recommended to steer and brake the caddy manually to prevent excessive torque.
4. 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.
