Electronic Braking System
8
The all new Electronic Braking System (EBS) is an option extra feature on 2020 PowaKaddy range.
The EBS is an automatic assisted braking system for downhill descends, maintaining the selected speed to prevent
the trolley running away from the user. In addition, the trolley will hold a selected speed uphill, removing the need
for constant adjustment of the control dial.
Warning: EBS is an assisted braking system for hill descent, not a 100% parking brake. The trolley must be powered
on and the wheels engaged with the clutches for the braking system to function. The drive system uses a limited
slip dierential to allow braking and provide ease of manoeuvrability. Try to avoid traversing a steep hill as the
load of the trolley will mostly be applied to the lower wheel on the slope and may cause the higher wheel to slip. If
your trolley loses traction and the wheels start to spin, reduce the speed and apply even pressure on the handle to
increase traction of both wheels.
Caution: Wet or loose ground conditions may cause the wheels to lock and slip on steep slopes. When walking up,
down or traversing slopes, please maintain a rm grip on the handle to assist the trolley and avoid injury or damage.

progress through your round the bars will extinguish from full
to empty. When the nal bar is extinguished it indicates that the
battery is at. When your battery is new you may lose only one
bar during the entire round. As your battery ages, you may lose
more bars.
If you lose all the bars this could indicate; (1) you have not fully
charged your battery (2) your battery is nearing the end of its
useful life and you should consider buying a replacement. For
further battery care information, please refer to Section 9.
