What should I use to open that file?

I gotta agree, csport, that is one whacked out file! It's a .txt file that I'm sure was saved out from a PDF or something and it lost a LOT of data in the process. It's almost readable if you can fill in the gaps, LOL!

Gorno is correct ..... again, mumble mumble mumble

I Sent you the 7 pages PDF format via email Sport.

PDF support would be helpful on this board, Mr. Roady, sir.

Just something else to think about on a hot Texas evening......

[scottyb]

If opening PDF files is one of those nasty jobs Americans do not want to do .... maybe we could get the illegals to do it?

Why do you think they'll believe some PDF file from the net? Download the Manual.

I have no idea why they can not understand this principle- except I was enlightened about one group- they will ot run a dishwasher or washing machine or dryer, if they are not home? It could break?
what the heck does that mean?

I'm surprised their car ever leaves the driveway!

Csport,

You are fighting a battle that is hard to win. The uneducated will only learn one of two ways, beat it into their heads or wait until it hits them in the pocket. While you are waiting for them to come around, there is a possible solution. Get a wall socket timer, set it to off for 1 hour and on the rest of the time. Tell the less fortunate family members that it is only going to let the charger charge for 1 hour and then shut off safely! You're problem is solved, they stay calm and the cart stays charged!! If they find out, just claim ignorance, fiddle with it for a few minutes and then leave it just the way you had it. Problem still solved and idiots feel justified in showing you how it's done. If none of that works, then let the cart die and buy it off of them for cheap, sell it and get yourself a toy that only you can use!!

Just had a brain storm!!! When you first get to the cart, make one of them sit with it until it gets a full charge (automatic mode) and no-one gets to use the cart until it is fully charged!! Fun time is precious and you will be hitting them in the head with logic!!!

Got my kids and wife trained, especially when both carts are DCS. If its not being driven it goes on the auto charger. two many bad stories about DCS carts and low bats. Now if I could just come up with a handy setup to keep the inlaws plugged in. they dont leave theirs plugged in because they are afraid of tripping breakers. those chargers can really make that meter spin. gets pricey at 15C per kwh.
