Owner’s Guide
Never modify the vehicle in any way that will alter the weight distribution of the vehicle, decrease its stability, or increase
the speed or extend the stopping distance beyond the factory specification. E-Z-GO prohibits and disclaims responsibility
for all such modifications which would adversely affect the safety of the vehicle.
Vehicles that are capable of higher speeds must limit their speed to no more than the speed of other vehicles when used
in a golf course environment. Additionally, speed should be further moderated by the environmental conditions, terrain
and common sense.
Operation of the vehicle is limited to persons above the height of 59 inches (150 cm).
GENERAL OPERATION
Read the following warnings before attempting to operate the vehicle.
To prevent personal injury or death, observe the following:
When vehicle is to be left unattended, turn key to OFF position AND REMOVE KEY.
Drive vehicle only as fast as terrain and safety considerations allow. Consider the terrain
and traffic conditions. Consider environmental factors which affect the terrain and the abil-
ity to control the vehicle.
Avoid driving fast downhill. Sudden stops or change of direction may result in a loss of
control. Use brake to control speed when traveling down an incline.
Use extra care and reduced speed when driving in poor conditions or on poor surfaces.
Stay in designated areas where provided and avoid steep slopes.
Keep feet, legs, hands, and arms inside vehicle at all times.
Avoid extremely rough terrain.
Check area behind the vehicle before operating in reverse.
Make sure the direction selector is in correct position before depressing the
accelerator pedal.
Slow down before and during turns.
Always bring vehicle to a complete stop before shifting the direction selector.
See GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS for vehicle load and seating capacity.
Read the following text and warnings before attempting to service vehicle.
In any product, components may eventually fail to perform properly as the result of normal use, age, wear, or abuse.
It is impossible to anticipate all possible component failures or the manner in which each component may fail.
A vehicle requiring repair is no longer functioning as designed and therefore could be potentially hazardous. Therefore,
use extreme care when working on any vehicle. When diagnosing, removing, or replacing any components that are not
operating correctly, take time to consider the safety of yourself and others around you.
Some components are heavy, spring-loaded, highly corrosive, explosive, may produce high amperage, or reach high
temperatures. Exposure to battery acid and hydrogen gas could result in serious bodily injury. Be careful to protect
hands, face, feet, and body from injury.
Always use the appropriate tools listed in the tool list and wear approved safety equipment.
