ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Unpack all items carefully and check inventory.
2. Place frame structure (one piece) on soft and clean ground to protect frame from being
scratched. Attach wheels to axles by pushing wheel locking button on the outside of the
wheel and inserting the axle extension into the wheel. Make sure to keep the locking
button on the outside of the wheel pushed in during this process, in order to enable
the axle extensions, including the two pins, to be inserted all the way into the wheel. If
not locked in, the wheel will not be connected to the axle and will not be propelled! Test the
lock by trying to pull the wheel out. Note: the X4 caddy has a right (R) and a left (L) wheel,
seen from behind in driving direction. Please make sure that the wheels are assembled on
the correct side, as otherwise the clutches will not engage. To disassemble the wheels
proceed in reverse order.
3. Erect Frame by unfolding and connecting the main frame tubes together at the two frame
locks by fastening the lower and upper frame locking knobs. Proceed in reverse for folding
the caddy.

4. Place battery pack on battery tray and fasten both Velcro straps around battery and frame
tightly. Insert 3 prong battery plug into caddy outlet. (Note: Do not screw plug nut into caddy
to prevent damage in case of a tip-over). Note: BEFORE CONNECTING make sure that
caddy power is OFF, Rheostat Speed Control on handle is in OFF position and the
remote control is stored securely!
5. For X4R insert anti tip wheel into holding bar on motor housing and secure with pin.
6. Install optional accessories, such as Scorecard/Beverage/Umbrella holder, below
handle in the foreseen places or receptors.

seamlessly. Dial forward to increase speed. Dial backwards to reduce speed.
2. Press ON/OFF power button for about 2 seconds to turn caddy on or off
3. The Digital Cruise Control: Select the ideal speed to match your pace with the rheostat speed
knob. In order to stop press the red cruise control button on the top of the handle. The cart
will remember its last speed setting when you stop. Once you are ready to go press the button
again, and the caddy will automatically travel at the same speed, except if you change the
speed knob position.
4. The caddy is equipped with a "Soft start" ability which ensures smooth acceleration up to

8
selected speed by pressing the stop/start button on the handlebar control panel.
5. The battery indicator LED with green or red color on the handle shows the battery charge at
any time. If green the battery is charged. When it turns red please recharge the battery soon.
2. Remote Control Operation (X4R Only)
Functions:
A. STOP: The red STOP button in the middle of the directional arrows should be used
for stopping the caddy.
B. Timer: 10, 20, 30 yards/meters: press once -> 10, twice -> 20; three times -> 30 y
C. Backward Arrow: Pressing the back arrow will set the caddy in backward motion.
Increase backward speed by pushing multiple times. Press also to decrease forward
speed/slow down the caddy
D. Forward Arrow: Pushing the forward arrow will set the caddy in forward motion.
Pushing multiple times will increase the speed. Push Backward arrow to slow down.

turning and continues straight with the original speed prior to turning.
F. Right Arrow: same as left arrow function.
G. On/Off Switch: On right side of device turns remote control on or off; recommended
to prevent accidental engagement of caddy
H. Antenna: internal
I. Batteries: 2 x 1.5V AAA
Important Notes –PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
-Change the remote control batteries once the indicator LED gets weak
-The remote control uses two 1.5V AAA batteries available in any supermarket,
drug store, or electronics store
-It is recommended to keep a set of extra batteries ready as replacement
-To change the batteries, open up the battery compartment cover by pulling the
lever and place the batteries according to the diagram in the battery
compartment
-The remote control system is designed to not interfere with other electric caddies
-The maximum range of the remote control varies between 80-100 yards,
depending on the battery charge, obstacles, atmospheric conditions, power lines,
cell phone towers, other electronic/natural interference sources

-It is strongly recommended to operate the caddy at a maximum range not
exceeding 20 yards in order to prevent the loss of control of the unit!
3Additional Functions
Freewheeling Mode: The caddy can be easily operated without power. In order to
activate the freewheeling mode, turn main power Off. The caddy now can be pushed
manually with little resistance.
Remote Control Resynchronization
Remote with on/off switch (as of 2014; no external antenna)
Step #1 - Make sure power is totally off for at least five (5) seconds
Step #2 - Hold down the stop button on the remote.
Step #3 - Power up cart. Continue to hold down the stop button.
Step #4 - Continue hold down the stop button until the lights on the LED screen blink.
Step #5 - Cart is now in “sync” test each function to assure all are functioning.
You are ready to go!
Remote for carts from 2010- 2013/14 (Controller has no green button, remote w strap
antenna)
Step #1 –Make sure power is off for at least five (5) seconds.
Step #2 - Hold down the forward button on the remote. Make sure the red LED light is lit.
Step #3 - Power up the cart. Continue to hold down the forward button on the remote.
Step #4 - Start counting slowly. Cart will start to move before you reach 15.
Step #5 - Cart is now in "sync" test each function to assure they are functioning.
Tracking Adjustment: Tracking behavior of all electric caddies is strongly
dependent on equal weight distribution and slope. Test your caddy’s tracking by
operating it on a level surface without the bag. If changes are necessary, you can adjust
the tracking of your caddy by loosening the front wheel axle and the adjustment bar on
the right side of the front wheel and shifting the axle accordingly. After such adjustment
fasten screws in reverse order but do not over tighten.
4 Electronic Systems
Remote Control Range: We recommend not to exceed 20-30 yards distance. The
greater the distance between you and caddy, the greater the chance of losing
contact with it.

Microcomputer: The remote caddy has 3 microcomputer controls: The first is in
main controller box. The second is in the remote control handset, and the third is
in the handle.
Safety Protection: When the temperature of the controller box reaches its upper
limit in case of an overload it will automatically shut down to cool off.
Microprocessor Controlled Electronics System: When you connect the battery,
the electronics system will automatically run through a start-up routine. Then you
can press the main OFF/ON switch on the handle. The battery charge indicator
lights will show you the charge level of the battery from green (fully charged) to
red (discharged).
Important: The electronics controller box contains no user serviceable parts.
Therefore, it is sealed to reduce the risk of moisture entering and impacting the
electronic system. Breaking this seal increases the risk of damaging the
electronics and decreasing the reliability of your caddy. DO NOT attempt to open
the controller case. Doing so will void the warranty!
Battery Operation and Care: Follow battery charge and maintenance
instructions.
