BAT-CADDY QUESTIONS
Should I charge the battery once I receive the unit?
Bat-Caddy: Our 12V sealed lead acid batteries come more or less fully charged, but we
recommend charging them for a full 12 hours before the first usage. The charger should either
have a blinking green light or a red light while it's charging and turn into a steady green light
when the battery is charged. Batteries develop their full potential after a few charging cycles.
How long does the battery last?
Bat-Caddy: Our batteries are rated to last on average for 27 holes or 6-8 hours of play per
charge. Depending on the weight and topography of your course they might last longer or
shorter. However, we recommend recharging the battery after every 18 holes, as complete
drainage reduces the life time of a battery significantly.
What do the lights on the handle mean?
Bat-Caddy: The red, yellow and green LEDs on the handle indicate the level of charge of the
battery. When the battery is fully charged they all should be lit. As the battery drains itself first
the green, then yellow will go off. If only the red is on it's time to recharge.
My caddy has no power when I try to turn it on?
Bat-Caddy: Please check if all electrical connections are tight. Also check the fuse in the red
cable of the battery leads within the battery carrying case. If broken please replace with a
standard 30Amp automotive fuse.
My caddy tends to track to one side. What should I do?
Bat-Caddy: All caddies will follow weight and slope. If the weight in your bag is unevenly
distributed the caddy will always tend to track to that side. Make sure that your bag is balanced.
Please test the tracking of your caddy without the bag on even terrain. The tracking can also be
adjusted by adjusting the front wheel. Please open the axle screw and the tracking rod located
on the right side of the front wheel. Shift wheel as needed and tighten the screws.
My caddy’s motor runs, but the wheels don’t turn?
Bat-Caddy: First check the position of left and right wheel. The wheels have clutches and
when installed on the wrong side, they won’t be propelled. Also check axle pins on both axle
ends.
The trolley stops by itself sometimes?
Bat-Caddy: Please check the battery charge level. Also the controller box has a
shut-down function, if the battery is too low or the controller is overheating or the
caddy does not receive a signal for 30-40 seconds.
Whom do I contact for service, parts and technical support?
Bat-Caddy: Please contact our Bat-Caddy Service Center at 1-877-815-0809 or
1-888-214-6033 or send an e-mail to [e-mail]
