PRE-OPERATION AND DAILY SAFETY CHECKLIST
Each Club Car vehicle has been thoroughly inspected and adjusted at the factory; however, upon receiving your new
vehicle(s), you should become familiar with its controls, indicators, and operation. Carefully inspect each vehicle to
ensure that it is in proper working condition before accepting delivery.
Use the following checklist as a guide to inspect the vehicle. This checklist should be used daily to ensure that
the vehicle is in proper working condition and in conjunction with the Performance Inspection on page 25 and the
Periodic Service Schedules on page 37. Any problems should be corrected by a Club Car distributor/dealer or a
trained technician.
• General: All the parts should be in place and properly installed. Be sure that all nuts, bolts, and screws are tight.
On gasoline vehicles, check all hose clamps for tight fit as well as the starter belt for tightness.
• Safety and information decals: Check to ensure that all safety and information decals are in place. See Safety
Decal Identification on page 5.
• Tires: Visually inspect for wear, damage, and proper inflation on a daily basis. See Vehicle Specifications –
Electric Vehicles on page 64 or Vehicle Specifications – Gasoline Vehicles on page 68.
• Battery(ies): Check electrolyte to ensure that it is at its proper level (Figure 20, Page 46). Check battery posts.
Wires should be tight and free of corrosion. On electric vehicles, charge batteries fully before first use of vehicle.
• Charger cord, plug, and receptacle (electric vehicles): Visually inspect for cracks, loose connections, and frayed
wiring. See Plug and Receptacle – PowerDrive 3 Charger Vehicles on page 51.
• Engine (gasoline vehicles): Check for proper engine oil level. See Engine Oil – Gasoline Vehicle on page 60.
Inspect air intake for blockage.
• Fuel (gasoline vehicles): Check fuel level. See Fueling Instructions – Gasoline Vehicle on page 62. Check
fuel tank, fuel injector, lines, cap, and pump for fuel leakage on a daily basis.
• Performance Inspection: Inspect as instructed. See Performance Inspection on page 25.
WARNING
• Be sure the plastic has been removed from the seat bottom before operating the vehicle. Failure to do
so can result in a fire, property damage, personal injury, or death.
