FUEL AND OIL RECOMMENDATIONS
Fuel
Use only clean, fresh, unleaded regular grade
gasoline.
Octane Rating
The octane rating of a gasoline is a measure
of its resistance to “knocking”. Use of a mini-
mum of 87 octane of the anti-knock index is
recommended. The anti-knock index is posted on
service station pumps in the U.S.A.
Oxygenated Fuel
If you use oxygenated fuel (either ethanol or
MTBE added to gasoline), be sure it is unleaded
and meets the minimum octane rating require-
ment.
The following are the EPA approved percent-
ages of fuel oxygenates.
ETHANOL: (Ethyl or Grain Alcohol) You may
use gasoline containing up to 10% ethanol by
volume.
MTBE: (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) You may
use gasoline containing up to 15% MTBE by
volume.
METHANOL: (Methanol or Wood Alcohol) 5% by
volume.
You may use gasoline containing up to 5%
methanol by volume, as long as it also contains
cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors to protect
the fuel system. Gasoline containing more than
5% methanol by volume may cause starting
and/or performance problems. It may also dam-
age metal, rubber, and plastic parts of your fuel
system.
Engine Oil
The following engine oils are recommended.
API Service Classification: SC, SD, SE, SF,
SG, or SH.
Oil Viscosity
Choose the viscosity according to the tem-
perature as follows:
Fuel Information
THIS VEHICLE IS CERTIFIED TO OPER-
ATE ON UNLEADED REGULAR GRADE
GASOLINE ONLY. A minimum of 87 octane of
the anti-knock index is recommended. The anti-
knock index is posted on service station pumps
in the U.S.A.
Emission Control Information
To protect the environment in which we all
live, Club Car has incorporated crankcase emis-
sion (1) and exhaust emission (2) control sys-
tems (EM) in compliance with applicable regu-
lations of the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency and California Air Resources Board.
1. Crankcase Emission Control System
A sealed-type crankcase emission control
system is used to eliminate blow-by gases. The
blow-by gases are led to the breather chamber
through the crankcase. Then, it is led to the air
cleaner.
Oil is separated from the gases while passing
through the inside of the breather chamber
from the crankcase, and then returned back to
the bottom of the crankcase.
2. Exhaust Emission Control System
The exhaust emission control system applied
to this engine consists of a carburetor and an
ignition system having optimum ignition timing
characteristics.
The carburetors have been calibrated to
provide lean air/fuel mixture characteristics
and optimum fuel economy with a suitable air
cleaner and exhaust system.
Maintenance and Warranty
Proper maintenance is necessary to ensure
that your engine will continue to have low emis-
sion levels.Those items identified by the Periodic
Maintenance Chart are necessary to ensure
compliance with the applicable standards.
The Club Car Limited Emission Control
System Warranty requires that you return your
engine to an authorized Club Car Dealer for
remedy under warranty. Please read the warranty
carefully, and keep it valid by complying with
the owner’s obligations it contains.
Tampering with Emission Control
System Prohibited
California State law prohibits the following
acts or the causing thereof: (1) the removal or
rendering inoperative by any person other than
for purposes of maintenance, repair, or replace-
ment, of any device or element of design incor-
porated into any new engine for the purposes of
emission control prior to its sale or delivery to the
ultimate purchaser or while it is in use, or (2) the
use of the engine after such device or element of
design has been removed or rendered inopera-
tive by any person.
Among those acts presumed to constitute
tampering are the acts listed below:
Do not tamper with the original emission relat-
ed parts:
• Carburetor and internal parts
• Spark plugs
• Magneto or electronic ignition system
• Fuel filter element
• Air cleaner element
• Crankcase
• Cylinder head
• Breather chamber and internal parts
• Intake pipe and tube

NOTE
• If “knocking or pinging” occurs, use a
different brand of gasoline or higher
octane rating.
• Do not mix oil with gasoline.
• Gasoline is extremely flammable and
can be explosive under certain con-
ditions. Turn the engine switch OFF.
Do not smoke. Make sure the area is
well ventilated and free from any
source of flame or sparks; this
includes any appliance with a pilot
light. Never fill the tank so the fuel
level rises into the filler neck. If the
tank is overfilled, heat may cause
the fuel to expand and overflow
through the vent in the fuel tank.
• After refueling, make sure the tank
cap is closed securely.
• If gasoline is spilled on the fuel tank
wipe it off immediately.
CAUTION
WARNING
WARNING
NOTE
• Using multi-grade oils (5W-20, 10W-
30, and 10W-40) will increase oil
consumption. Check oil level more
frequently when using them.

WARNING
•Before allowing anyone to drive the vehicle, make sure the driver is familiar with all controls
and operating procedures.
•Do not tamper with the governor. Doing so will void the warranty, as well as damage the
engine and other components, and could result in property damage, personal injury, or death
due to unsafe speeds.
•Do not shift the Forward/Reverse handle while the vehicle is in motion. To avoid injury to an
unsuspecting passenger or damage to the vehicle, always bring the vehicle to a full stop
before shifting the handle.
•Release the accelerator pedal and then depress the brake pedal firmly until the vehicle stops.
To avoid unintentionally starting or rolling the vehicle, set the park brake, turn the key switch
to OFF, and remove the key when leaving the vehicle.

ACCELERATOR PEDAL
The accelerator pedal is the pedal on the right, with the word GO molded into it
(Figure 5)
. The operation of
the accelerator pedal differs from that of an automobile. When the key switch is ON, and the Forward/Reverse
handle is in either FORWARD or REVERSE, depressing the accelerator pedal will automatically release the
park brake and start the vehicle moving in the direction selected (forward or reverse). When the accelerator is
released, power will be cut off and the engine will stop running
.
BRAKE PEDAL
The brake pedal is the large pedal on the left with the word STOP molded into it
(Figure 5)
. To slow or stop the
vehicle, depress the brake pedal
(Figure 6, Page 14)
.
PARK BRAKE PEDAL
The park brake pedal is the small raised portion in the upper left corner of the brake pedal. It has the word
PARK molded into it and the words PARK BRAKE marked on top of it
(Figure 6)
. To set the park brake,
depress the brake pedal firmly and tilt the park brake portion of the pedal forward
(Figure 7)
.
∆
WARNING
•The park brake will release automatically when either the accelerator or brake pedal is
depressed. The park brake has multiple locking positions and should be firmly pressed and
locked to prevent the vehicle from rolling.
NEUTRAL LOCKOUT
For the convenience of the trained technician, there is a neutral lockout cam (yellow knob) located on the back
of the Forward/Reverse shifter, inside the engine compartment. If the neutral lockout cam is pulled out approx-
imately 3/8 inch (10 mm) and then rotated one-half turn until it snaps into place, the cam will be in the SER-
VICE position
(Figure 8)
.
∆
WARNING
•With the cam in the SERVICE position and the engine running, the vehicle may move suddenly
if the Forward/Reverse handle is shifted or accidentally bumped. To prevent this, chock the
front and rear wheels and firmly set the park brake before servicing or leaving the vehicle.

Controls and Indicators
2003 Turf Utility Gasoline Vehicle Owner’s Manual Page 15
When the cam is in the SERVICE position, it will allow the technician to run the engine in neutral to perform
certain maintenance and/or repair functions. With the cam in this position, the vehicle will not operate if the
Forward/Reverse handle is placed in either the FORWARD or REVERSE position.
NOTE:
Be sure to return the cam to the OPERATE position after servicing the vehicle, or it will not run with
the Forward/Reverse handle in either the FORWARD or REVERSE position.
CHOKE
The choke is located on the seat support panel below and to the left of the driver’s left knee. If the vehicle is
hard to start in cool or cold temperatures, activate the choke:
•Turf 1:
Depress the choke cover. Hold the choke cover in during start-up and release it after the engine
starts and runs smoothly
(Figure 10)
.
•Turf 2 and Turf 6:
Pull the choke cable. Hold choke cable out during start-up and release it after the
engine starts and runs smoothly
(Figure 11)

LOW OIL WARNING LIGHT
The vehicle is equipped with a low oil warning light, located on the dash panel just above the steering column
(Figure 12)
. If the warning light comes on, oil should be checked and added to the engine as necessary
before continuing to use the vehicle.The vehicle should never be driven when the low oil warning light remains
on. If the warning light goes on and off, the vehicle may be driven, but oil should be added at the first oppor-
tunity. If the oil level is correct and the warning light stays on, have a trained technician check the vehicle.
∆
CAUTION
•Failure to add oil immediately when the low oil warning light stays on may result in permanent
engine damage.
FUEL GAUGE/HOUR METER
The vehicle is equipped with a fuel gauge/hour meter, located on the dash panel
(Figure 12)
. The fuel gauge
allows the operator to monitor the fuel level in the vehicle. The hour meter should be used by the trained tech-
nician to track vehicle usage and determine when periodic service procedures are required. See Periodic
Service Schedule on page 26.
HEADLIGHT CONTROL
The headlight control is located on the front dash between the fuel gauge/hour meter and steering column.
Pull the headlight control knob out to turn headlights on and push the knob in to turn headlights off.

Pre-Operation and Daily Safety Checklist
2003 Turf Utility Gasoline Vehicle Owner’s Manual Page 17
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 Periodic Service Schedule on page 26.
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. 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 pages 8 through 11.
•Tires: Check for proper tire pressure. See Vehicle Specifications on page 34. Visually inspect tires
for wear, damage, and proper inflation on a daily basis.
•Battery: Before using vehicle for the first time, check electrolyte to ensure it is at the proper level
(Figure 23, Page 32). Check battery posts. Wires should be tight and free of corrosion and battery
should be fully charged.
•Engine: Check for proper engine oil level. See Engine Oil on page 29.
•Fuel: Check fuel level. See Fueling Instructions on page 30. Check fuel tank, lines, cap, pump, fuel
filters, and carburetor for fuel leakage on a daily basis.
•Exhaust system: Check for leaks.
∆ WARNING
•Be sure the plastic has been removed from the seat bottom before operating the vehicle.
Failure to do so may result in a fire, property damage, personal injury or death.
PERFORMANCE INSPECTION
After you have familiarized yourself with the vehicle controls and have read and understood the driving
instructions, take the vehicle for a test drive.
Use the following checklist as a guide to inspect the vehicle and check daily for proper operation. Any prob-
lems should be corrected by a Club Car distributor/dealer or a trained technician.
•Forward/Reverse shifter: Check for proper operation. See Controls and Indicators on page 12.
•Brakes: Be sure the brakes function properly. When brake pedal is fully depressed under moderate
pressure, it should not go more than halfway to the floor, and vehicle should come to a smooth, straight
stop. If the brake pedal goes more than halfway to the floor or if the vehicle swerves or fails to stop,
have the brake system checked and adjusted as required. Brake adjustment must be maintained so the
brake pedal cannot be depressed to the floor under any circumstance.
•Park brake: When latched, the park brake should lock the wheels and hold the vehicle stationary (on
an incline of 20% or less). It should release when either the accelerator or brake pedal is depressed.
•Reverse buzzer: The reverse buzzer will sound as a warning when the Forward/Reverse handle is in
REVERSE.
•Steering: The vehicle should be easy to steer and should not have any play in the steering wheel.
•Accelerator: With the key switch ON and the Forward/Reverse handle in the FORWARD position; as
the accelerator pedal is depressed, the engine should start and the vehicle should accelerate smoothly
to full speed. When the pedal is released it should return to the original position and the engine should
stop. Club Car vehicles operate at reduced speed in reverse.

Driving Instructions
Page 18 2003 Turf Utility Gasoline Vehicle Owner’s Manual
•Governor: Check maximum speed of the vehicle. Turf 1 and Turf 2 vehicles should operate at 12-15
mph (19-24 km/h) on a level surface. The Turf 6 vehicle should operate at 14-16 mph (23-26 km/h) on a
level surface.
•General: Listen for any unusual noises such as squeaks or rattles. Check the vehicle’s ride and perfor-
mance. Have a Club Car distributor/dealer or a trained technician investigate anything unusual.
DRIVING INSTRUCTIONS
No one should drive the vehicle without first being instructed in the proper operation and use of vehicle con-
trols. An experienced operator should accompany each first-time driver on a test drive before allowing the
driver to operate the vehicle alone.
