2. Testing Your Caddy
Test Environment
First, make sure that you perform your first test of the caddy in a wide and safe area,
free of obstructions or valuables, such as people, parked automobiles, flowing traffic,
furniture or water bodies (rivers, swimming pools etc.), steep hills, cliffs or similar
hazards.
Manual Control Operation
Test the manual function first: Turn the main switch to “On” (I) position. The manual
functions of the caddy are controlled through the rheostat control wheel on the right
side of the handle. Pushing the wheel forward (clockwise) will control the forward
movement of the caddy. In order to slow down or stop the caddy, turn the wheel
backwards (counterclockwise).
Remote Control Operation (X3R Only)
Make sure you are close to the caddy at all times while testing it and familiarizing
yourself with the remote control! Now turn on the main power switch and make sure
that the rheostat control wheel is in “0” position. One touch of the Forward/Backward
arrows on the remote control starts the caddy in either direction. Further pushes
increase the speed. In order to stop the caddy press round red STOP button in the
middle of the remote! To turn the caddy in either direction push the left or right
arrows briefly. Once you release the button the caddy will continue in the current
direction at the same speed prior to the turning command. You will notice that the caddy
reacts promptly to any turning command, so it will take you some practice to get just the
right touch for turning maneuvers. Please be aware that the turning characteristics will
change depending on the surface (grass, asphalt), the slope or the weight (loaded,
unloaded) of your caddy.
The remote is designed to have a reach of approximately 80-100 yards, but we strongly
recommend to operate the caddy in closer ranges of 10-30 yards (not exceeding 50
yards) to be able to react to any unforeseen events, such as other golfers crossing your
path or to avoid hidden obstructions (creeks, bunkers, GUR, etc.) or an unexpected
disconnection in remote operation. An additional safety feature of this caddy is that it
will stop moving if it does not receive a signal from the remote control at least every
30-45 seconds. This way, should you ever be distracted, your caddy does not completely
get away. By pressing the lower right button on the remote the caddy can be moved
forward automatically by 10, 20, or 30 yards.
