Series cart towing
If you have a series cart (no run tow switch), if you ever had to tow it...is there anything you have to do as to not damage anything?
I understand on sepex cart to tow it...flip switch to tow with key turned off...and I guess go real slow. What about a series cart? Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk |

Re: Series cart towing
place the F/R switch in Neutral....and disconnect the battery, not sure that is required, but it certainly won't hurt (either + or -)....tow it slow....no faster than the cart would normally run.
Remember this concept when towing the golf cart: the electric power motor becomes a massive generator when it is spun on its own. This current travels down the pipes (battery cables) to a destination. When you unhook the main battery cable connection and place the shifters in neutral you prevent this current from damaging the electronics of the golf cart. |

Re: Series cart towing
The important thing is that your motor is isolated. This is what happens when the F/R switch is in Neutral.
