There is a video on how to assemble your X3 Series cart on our website
(www.batcaddy.com) under Product Info > Tech Tips
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 sliding the locking lever on the wheel hub to the right, opening
the internal lock. Insert the axle into the wheel. Make sure to keep the locking lever in the
open position during this process (Pic-1). Then insert the axle all the way onto the wheel
(Pic-2). Align the axle pins so they fit into the inner core of the wheel (Pic-3). Release the
lever and let the wheel lock into the groove on the front of the axle to secure it in place.
If not locked in, the wheel will not be connected to the motor and may come off. Test the
lock by trying to pull the wheel out. To disassemble the wheels, proceed in reverse order.

Antenna: Internal
Batteries: 2 x 1.5V AAA
Important Notes
• Change the remote control batteries once the indicator LED light gets weak or does not light
at all.
• The remote control uses two 1.5V AAA batteries available in any supermarket, drugstore, or
electronics store
• It is recommended to keep a set of extra batteries ready as replacement
• To change the batteries, open the battery compartment cover by pulling the lever and place the
batteries according to the diagram in the battery compartment
• The remote-control system is designed to not interfere with other electric caddies
• The maximum range of the remote control varies between 80-100 yards, depending on the
battery charge, obstacles, atmospheric conditions, power lines, cell phone towers or other
electronic/natural interference sources
• It is strongly recommended to operate the caddy at a maximum range of 20 - 30 yards in order
to prevent loss of control of the unit!

Additional Functions
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 behavior by operating it on an even surface without the bag.
If changes are necessary, you can adjust the
tracking of your caddy by loosening the front
wheel axle and shifting the front wheel as
needed. After adjustment, fasten screws in
reverse order. Note: DO NOT over tighten the
nuts.
Note: There is a video on our website (www.batcaddy.com) under “tech tips” that shows how
to adjust tracking
AXLE ADJUSTMENT
Braking System
The caddy drive train is designed to keep the wheels engaged with the motor, thus acting as a
brake that will control the caddy’s speed while going downhill.
the caddy are controlled through the speed control dial (rheostat) on the top of the handle. Turning
the wheel clockwise will control the forward movement of the caddy. In order to slow down or stop
the caddy, turn the wheel counterclockwise.
Remote Control Operation (X3R Only)
Make sure you are close to the caddy at all times while testing it and familiarizing
yourself with the remote control! Turn on the main power switch and make sure that the
speed dial control (rheostat) is in the OFF position. One press of the Forward/Backward arrows
on the remote control starts the caddy in either direction. Further presses increase the speed.
In order to stop the caddy, press the round red STOP button in the middle of the remote.
you release the button, the caddy will continue in the current direction at the same speed prior
to the turning command. You will notice that the caddy reacts differently on different surfaces,
so it will take some practice to get just the right touch for turning maneuvers. The remote is
designed to have a reach of approximately 80-100 yards, but we strongly recommend to operate
the caddy in closer ranges of 10-30 yards (not exceeding 50 yards) to be able to react quickly to
any unforeseen events, i.e., other golfers crossing your path, or to avoid hidden obstructions such
as creeks, bunkers, or uneven ground, etc. or an unexpected disconnection in remote operation.

BATTERY MAINTENANCE & ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS
• Battery Charging and Maintenance(seespecicseparateinstructions forsealedlead acid
(SLA) and lithium batteries)
• PLEASE OBEY THESE PRECAUTIONS FOR BATTERY USE & CHARGING:
• Please do not charge the battery in a sealed container or a an upside down position. Charge
the battery in a well-ventilated area.
• Please do not charge the battery near a heat source, where heat accumulation may occur, or
in direct sunlight.
• In order to prolong the service life of the battery, avoid complete discharge and charge the
battery after every use. Unplug the battery from the charger once the charge is complete. When
the caddy is not in use for an extended period of time, it is recommended to charge the battery
once every 6 weeks.
• The red color on the battery pole stands for positive, and the black stands for negative. In case
of battery replacement, please reconnect the poles of the battery correctly to avoid severe
damage.
• NEVER TOUCH THE ELECTRIC POLES OF THE BATTERY AT THE SAME TIME! THIS IS
A SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD!
Battery Charging Instructions for SLA Batteries
• Connect the battery cable plug to the charger and then plug the charger into an electrical outlet.
• During the charging cycle the LED on the charger will show a red steady light. Once the charging
cycle is complete, the red light will turn into a steady green light. It is now okay to unplug the
charger and battery for reuse.
• The charging cycle can last up to 12 hours depending on the level of discharge.
• Normally the battery will hold its charge for several months, and it does not have a “memory
effect”, and therefore can be recharged at any discharge level. It is recommended to not fully
discharge the battery, as this will shorten battery life drastically. The battery has a normal
lifespan of approximately 150 charges, depending on charging frequency, storage conditions,
and time and discharge history, which could reduce this lifetime.
• Before storing a battery for extended periods of time you must fully charge it.
DO NOT store a discharged battery or as it may become unusable. Replacement batteries are
available from Bat-Caddy or your authorized dealer.
• Always keep your battery fully charged before another game
• Never keep your battery connected to the grid during prolonged power outages. It might be
irreversibly damaged.
11
Battery Charging Instructions for SLA Batteries (continued)
DO NOT fully discharge the battery by “overplaying” it. It is recommended to recharge the battery
after every 18 holes.
*Life of sealed lead acid and any other batteries is dependent on a variety of factors, other
than purely the number of charges, including but not limited to, frequency between charges,
duration of charge, level of drainage, idle time, operating temperature, storage conditions
and duration and overall shelf time. Bat-Caddy will cover our batteries according to our
warranty policy and any potential additional coverage is at our discretion”.
Battery Charging Instructions for Lithium Batteries
• Similar instructions to SLA battery with these differences and additions.
• Do not expose the battery to excessive heat or direct sun for long periods of time.
• Do not store in hot areas (car trunks, garages, etc). LI batteries do not like high temperatures.
• Do not leave the battery on the charger for extended periods of time. Overcharging the battery
will void the warranty. It is recommended to charge the battery shortly before you play again,
instead of right after you have played.
• Unlike SLA batteries, lithium batteries should be stored at a lower charge state during longer
periods of inactivity. The ideal charge state is 40-50% of capacity.
• The red light indicating the charge is only lit when plugged into a power source. The capacity is
measured by a series of four(4) green lights. When all four lights are lit, the battery is charged.
(Prior model chargers have a different set of instructions.)
• Never expose or throwtheLithiumbatteryintoopenre. EXTREME FIRE HAZARD
Recommendations for Efcient 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 recomend 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.
• Always disconnect the battery when you store your caddy, and always reassemble your caddy
before reconnecting the battery. If you are not planning to play for at least a month, store the
batteryinacooldryplace(notonaconcreteoor)andDO NOT LEAVE IT ON THE CHARGER.
Electronic Systems
• Remote Control Range: We recommend not to exceed 20-30 yards distance. The greater the
distance between you and the caddy, the greater the chance of losing control of it.
• Microcomputer: Theremotecaddyhas3microcomputercontrols:therst is in main controller
box, the second is in the remote control transmitter handset, and the third is in the receiver in
the handle.
• Safety Protection: When the temperature of the controller box reaches its upper limit, the
overload circuit will automatically shut down the unit to cool it down. The remote control unit
will NOT operate at this time, but you may continue to use your caddy with manual operation.
• Microprocessor Controlled Electronics System: When you connect the battery, the
electronics system will automatically run through a start-up routine; then once completed you
can press the main OFF/ON switch on the handle. The battery charge indicator lights will show
you the charge level of the battery from green (fully charged) to red (discharged).
• Important: The electronics controller box contains no user serviceable parts. Therefore, it is
sealed to reduce the risk of moisture entering and impacting the electronic system. Breaking
this seal increases the risk of damaging the electronics and decreasing the reliability of your
caddy. DO NOT attempt to open the controller case. DOING SO WILL VOID THE WARRANTY!
Battery Operation and Care: Follow battery charge and maintenance instructions. The battery
comes with leads and a 3-prong connector.
