ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

1. Unpack all items carefully and check inventory. Place frame structure (one piece) on soft clean ground to protect the frame from being scratched.

2. Attach rear wheels to axles by pushing the wheel locking button (Pic-1) on the
   outside of the wheel and inserting the axle extension in to the wheel. Make sure
   to keep the spring clip (PIC-2) on the outside of the wheel depressed during
   this process, in order to enable the wheel to be inserted fully onto the axle
   sprocket. If you have inserted the wheel correctly onto the wheel when you
   release the spring clip it will lock onto a groove on the end of the axle. If not locked properly, the wheel will not be connected to the axle and will not be propelled! Test the lock by trying to pull the wheel out.
   

3. The X4 Classic & X4 Sport caddies have a specific right (R) and a left (L) wheel (Pic-3), as seen from behind in driving direction. Please make sure that the wheels are assembled on the correct side, otherwise the clutches will not engage. To disassemble the wheels, proceed in reverse order.
   Note: The X4 Pro & X4R rear wheels are interchangeable. They fit on either side.

4. Erect Frame by unfolding and connecting the main frame tubes together
   at the two frame locks. On the lower frame lock screw (Pic-2) make sure
   the middle frame piece sets securely against the lower frame so the screw
   line up with the threaded insert. One the upper locking screw (Pic-3) you
   have a range of adjustment to the height depending on your preference.
   

5. Proceed in reverse for folding the caddy.

6. Place the battery pack on the battery tray. Insert the 3-prong battery plug into the caddy outlet so the notch aligns properly and attach T-connector onto the battery.
   (SLA Battery lead is attached to battery)

Then attach Velcro strap. Tightly fasten the Velcro strap underneath the battery tray and around the battery. It is recommended that you DO NOT fasten the screw on the plug to the outlet, so in case of tip-over, the cable can unplug from the socket.

Note: BEFORE CONNECTING make sure that caddy power is OFF, the Rheostat Speed Control is in OFF position and the remote control is stored securely.

7. For X4R and X4 Pro insert anti-tip wheel into holding bar on motor housing and secure with pin.
   
   X4R Only

8. Unpack remote control and install batteries with plus and minus poles as indicated in the diagram in the battery compartment of the unit.
   

OPERATING YOUR Bat-Caddy

Manual Controls

(located on the upper handle)

1. Control Panel:

   • Power Button – Holding down the button for 3-5 seconds will turn your
     Bat-Caddy on or off. A green/red LED light will turn on behind the battery icon (On Bat-Caddys equipped with a Timer Button, the Power Button also acts as the Start/Stop button)
     

   • Start/Stop Button – (on select models) Pushing the button while the Caddy is in motion will stop the Caddy. Pushing the button again will start the Caddy again and resume at the same speed when stopped.)
     NOTE -This is not a parking brake. Caddys need to be properly angled when parking on slopes to keep them from drifting.

   • Timer Button (on select models) – When your Bat-Caddy is stopped pressing this button once will advance the Caddy approximately 10 yards and it will stop on its own. Pressing the button twice will advance it 20 yards, and pressing 3 times will advance it 30 yards.
     

2. Speed Control Dial:

   • The dial on the side of the handle controls the forward speed of your Bat-Caddy. This dial should always be turned off prior to powering on your Caddy. This is done by turning the dial counterclockwise until it clicks. Once you have powered on your Caddy, slowly turn the dial clockwise until the Caddy matches your preferred walking speed. Once your desired speed is set you can use the Start/Stop button as described above to stop and start your Caddy for the rest of the round. Speed can be adjusted on the fly at any time by turning the dial up or down while in motion.
     

Remote-Control

1. POWER Switch: Slide up to turn on the Remote-Control. Slide down to turn off. It is recommended to turn the Remote-Control off when not actively operating your Caddy. This will avoid accidental button pushes when not paying attention to your Caddy.
   

2. LED Light: Lights up when Remote-Control is turned on and a button is
   pushed. This indicates that the remote is sending a signal to the Caddy.

3. STOPPING: The STOP button will stop the Caddy

4. GOING FORWARD: Pressing the UP BUTTON while the Caddy is standing still will start the Caddy in forward motion. Pushing the UP BUTTON again will increase the Caddy’s forward speed one level. Your Caddy has 9 forward speeds. Pushing the DOWN BUTTON will lower the forward speed one level.

5. GOING BACKWARD: Pressing the DOWN BUTTON while the Caddy is standing still will start the Caddy in reverse motion. Pushing the DOWN BUTTON again will increase the Caddy’s reverse speed one level. Your Caddy has 9 reverse speeds. Pushing the UP BUTTON will lower the reverse speed one level.

6. TURNING RIGHT: Press and hold the RIGHT BUTTON and the Caddy will turn to the right (from a stop and while in motion) until the button is released.

7. TURNING LEFT: Press and hold the LEFT BUTTON and the Caddy will turn to the left (from a stop and while in motion) until the button is released.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES

1. Your Bat-Caddy comes with an automatic shut-down feature to help prevent “run-away” Caddys when operating remotely. If the caddy does not receive a signal from the Remote-Control after the last button push for approximately 40 seconds, it will assume the caddy has lost contact and stop automatically. If this happens simply push any button on the Remote-Control to resume operation.
2. While the maximum range for your Bat-Caddy to receive a signal from your RemoteControl is 80-100 yards, this range is in perfect “laboratory” conditions. It is strongly recommended that you operate your Bat-Caddy at a maximum of 20-30 yards. This will help prevent any signal interference and/or loss of control.

SYNCHRONIZING YOUR REMOTE

If your Bat-Caddy will not respond to your Remote-Control it may need to be re-synched.

• Power off your Bat-Caddy for 5 seconds.
• Turn on your Remote-Control
• Press and hold down the STOP button on the Remote-Control
• Press and hold down the ON/OFF button on the Control Panel until the green LED light under the battery symbol begins to blink.
•  Release both buttons
•  Your Caddy and Remote-Control are now synched and ready to go.

Additional Functions

Braking System: The caddy drive train is designed to keep the wheels engaged with the motor/gearbox, thus acting as a brake that will maintain the caddy’s speed while going downhill.

Tracking Adjustment: Tracking behavior of all electric caddies is strongly dependent on equal weight distribution on the caddy and slope/topography of the golf course. Test your caddy’s tracking by operating it on a level surface without the bag. If changes are necessary, you can adjust the tracking of your caddy by loosening the front wheel axle and the Adjustment bar on the right side of the from wheel and shifting the axle accordingly. After such adjustment fasten screws in-reverse order but do not over tighten.

Tracking – there is a video on the website that shows
how to adjust tracking

USB port is available for charging GPS and/or cell phones. It is located in the end cap of the upper frame above the handle control.

Testing Your Caddy

Test Environment
Make sure that you perform your first test of the caddy in a wide and safe area, free of obstructions or valuables, such as people, parked automobiles, flowing traffic, bodies of water (rivers, swimming pools, etc.), steep hills, cliffs or similar hazards.

Recommendations for Efficient and Safe Operation

• Be alert and act responsibly at all times while operating your caddy, just as you would when operating a riding cart, motor vehicle, or any other type of machinery. We absolutely do not recommend the consumption of alcohol or any other impairing substances while operating our caddies.
• DO NOT operate the caddy carelessly or in narrow or dangerous places. Avoid using your caddy in places where people may gather, such as parking lots, drop-off areas, or practice areas, to avoid damage to people or valuables. We recommend operating your caddy manually in crowded areas with or without power. Please make sure to always switch off the power and secure the caddy when you are through or when not in use.

General Maintenance

All of these recommendations, along with common sense, will help keep your Bat Caddy in top condition and ensure that it remains your reliable partner, both on and off the links.

• The Bat-Caddy has been designed so that the user can concentrate on playing golf, while the caddy does the work of carrying your bag. In order to keep your Bat-Caddy looking its best, wipe any mud or grass from the frame, wheels and chassis after every round using a damp cloth or paper towel.
• NEVER use water hoses or high-pressure jet washers to clean your caddy to prevent moisture from entering the electronic systems, motors, or gear boxes.
• Remove the rear wheels every few weeks and clean out any debris that may cause the wheels to drag. You may apply some lubricant, such WD-40, to keep moving parts smooth and corrosion-free.
• A 4 to 5 hour round of golf played once a week for 12 months is equivalent to approximately four years’ use of a lawn mower. Thoroughly inspect your cart at least once a year, and if you notice any symptoms of wear, contact your Bat-Caddy Service Center. Alternatively, you can have your caddy inspected and tuned at our Service Centers, so it’s always in great shape for the new season.

Note: Bat-Caddy reserves the right to modify/upgrade any components during a model year, so illustrations on our website, brochures and manuals may slightly vary from the actual product shipped. However, Bat-Caddy guarantees that specifications and functionality will be always equal to or better from the advertised product. Promotional accessories may also vary from illustrations shown on our website and other publications.
