MAINTENANCE

Like any machine, maintaining your utility cart ensures its best performance and extends its life. Follow these procedures to
keep your utility cart working at peak efficiency.
• Check all screws and nuts regularly; tighten them as needed. Regularly check the plastic parts for cracks or broken
pieces.
• Periodically check the tire pressure on all two tires. Keep the tire pressure between 28 and 30 pounds per square inch (psi).
W A R N I N G
Never over inflate the tires. If you over inflate the tires, you could cause them to explode resulting in severe injury.
• Try not to use your utility cart when it's wet or snowy. And do not spray the electrical areas of your utility cart with a hose.
Water and moisture in the motors and electrical switches can cause them to corrode, which then causes them to fail.
• Wash your utility cart using a mild automotive type detergent and water with a soft brush or rag. Do not use any alkaline-
based soaps or pressure wash your utility cart.
STORING YOUR UTILITY CART
• Store your utility cart inside or under a protective cover.
• Charge the battery before storing your utility cart. In temperatures lower then 40° F (5° C), the battery maintains a charge
for about 60 days. If you store your utility cart for extended periods of time, periodically recharge the battery. Once a
month is a good rule of thumb.
• Always store your utility cart in an environment where the temperature is between –10° F (–23° C) and +85° F (+23° C).
Make sure the storage temperatures will never be outside these limits.
• Store your utility cart in a dry environment. Water will damage your utility cart and the battery.
• Do not store your utility cart near chemicals (such as fertilizers), or organic or other solvents. These products are often
highly corrosive and may cause permanent damage to your utility cart.
• Do not store your utility cart close to a source of heat, sparks, or open flames.
