This pre-ride checklist should be exercised every time you use your golf cart. Before you start, make sure the ignition is in the OFF position and the parking brake is applied.

Pre-Ride Checklist:
  • Engine Oil
  • Fuel System
  • Tire Condition
  • Reverse Buzzer
  • Steering System
  • Brake System
  • Body and Chassis
Engine Oil - While parked on a level surface, make sure the oil level is in the OK zone on your dipstick. If you are running a 2-cycle, make sure the oil level is above minimum.

Fuel System - Make sure you have more than enough fuel for the ride you are taking. Examine fuel lines for corrosion, punctures, kinks, leaks or dry rotting.

Tire Condition - Make sure tire pressure is above 16 PSI. Check tire for damage, cracks, excessive wear and embedded objects.

Reverse Buzzer - When shifting into reverse, the reverse buzzer should sound.

Steering System - Jiggle the steering wheel to check for excessive play. Make sure there are no abnormal sounds coming from the system.

Brake System - Check the brakes operation by pressing the pedal. Look underneath at cables and linkage to ensure proper movement.

Body and Chassis - Visually inspect the body, frame and chassis for missing parts, rust, obscure objects, dirt, debris or loose nuts and bolts.
