3.0 Assembling Your Caddy
3.1 Attaching the Rear Wheels
Step 1. Each wheel is labelled with L or R for left or right. This is very
important as the wheels must be placed on the correct side of the
caddy. Left or right sides are determined when standing behind
the caddy as pictured above.
Step 2. On the wheel, press the grey release button on the wheel
hub. Place the wheel onto the axle. You will notice you need to
match up the inner female groove on the axle and the male
of the wheel. When placed in position simply release the button.
You will notice you hear a “click” when the wheel is properly
secured. To check that the wheel is properly in position pull
on the wheel. If it is properly in position it will not slide off.
Repeat for the other wheel.
3.2 Rear Wheels Positions
The MGI ZIP caddy is designed to allow the rear wheels to be in

side

two positions. The position is determined by where the wheel is
locked on the axle in either of the two grooves [see picture]. The
drive position is used during the normal operation of the caddy.
The free wheel position is used to freely push the caddy should
you experience battery or caddy issues on the course.
i. Drive position – Lock the wheel onto the groove closest to the
battery base. To do this, press the grey release button on the
wheel hub, push the wheel on to the axle as far as possible. To
test for drive position try rolling the wheel backwards. If you feel
resistance then the wheel is now in drive position and ready to
use. Repeat for both wheels.
ii. Free wheel – Lock the wheel into the groove closest to the
end of the axle. To do this, press the grey release button on
the wheel hub, push the wheel on to the axle and release the
release button onto the groove. To test for free wheel position try
rolling the wheel backwards. The wheel should spin freely with no
resistance. Repeat for both wheels.
3.3 Unfolding

3.5 Fourth Foldable Rear Wheel
The MGI ZIP X1 comes standard with a fourth foldable rear wheel.
This wheel MUST be unfolded into position at all times when
the caddy is in use. This will reduce damaging the caddy, and
provide the ultimate in stability across all terrains. This fourth wheel
should be cleaned regularly with a cloth to ensure it can be
folded as required for storage.
3.6 GPS Holder and Top Handle Compartment
In the top handle compartment there is a position for a GPS/
mobile device holder. Open the compartment and connect the
holder into position. To open the holder always press the button
at the top of the holder. Place the GPS into the cradle, then close
the holder by squeezing the two sides closer together.
3.7 Inverting Rear wheels
The rear wheels can be inverted on the axle to reduce the size of
the caddy when folded.

9.0 Preventative Maintenance Program
To properly provide for the continued operation of your MGI
ZIP caddy, MGI has introduced its Preventative Maintenance
Program [PMP]. The PMP consists of work to be carried out by
both the owner and authorized service centres. To properly
maintain the warranty of your MGI motorized caddy, it is essential
that this work is carried out. If the work carried out by the
authorized service center is to replace parts that are part of the
maintenance schedule, the owner will be charged for the parts
and labor. If the work to be carried out is part of warranty, MGI will
bear the cost.
9.1 Cleaning Your MGI ZIP Caddy [See Maintenance Schedule]
• For years of good operation, your caddy requires care and
attention.
• Keep your caddy clean by using a cloth with warm water
and a mild detergent.
• Do not hose down your caddy under any circumstance, as
the caddy has electronic components.
• Ensure that the seat stem bracket is free from sand.
• Do not submerge your caddy in water as it will cause
irreparable damage.
• Clean the caddy battery base when the battery is removed
from the caddy.
9.2 Rear Wheel Axles Maintenance [See Maintenance Schedule]
The rear wheel stub axles need to be lubricated regularly. Remove
the rear wheels by depressing the spring clip and at the same
time pull off the wheel. Apply Petroleum Jelly or light grease to
the stub axles. Use a very small amount as the grease can attract
sand. If you play in sandy conditions you should clean the axle
and regrease fortnightly.
9.3 Upper and Lower Bag Strap Maintenance [See Maintenance
Schedule]
The bag straps should be replaced as per the Service Schedule.
The upper bag strap can be replaced by:
• Removing the left and right hand straps form the upper bag
support
• Undo and remove the screws holding the strap in position on
the bag support
• Remove and replace both bag straps
• Insert bag strap securing screws.
9.4 MGI Service Schedule
It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that all periodical checks,
necessary adjustments and services are carried out. If in doubt
please contact the MGI service center on 1300 644 523. Any work
performed on your caddy should be recorded on your service
record (see page 18) regardless of the work.
