TRANSPORTING VEHICLE
Towing
Use extra caution when towing a vehicle.
DO NOT ride on the vehicle being towed.
DO NOT try to tow the vehicle with ropes, chains or any device other than tow bar approved by
the factory.
DO NOT tow the vehicle on highways.
DO NOT tow a single vehicle at speeds in excess of 12 mph (19 kph).
DO NOT exceed 5 mph (8 kph) while towing multiple vehicles.
DO NOT tow more than three vehicles at a time.
Before the vehicle, put the run/tow switch in the TOW position.
Place key switch in N and the Run/Tow switch in the TOW or
(on European Models) position prior to
towing the vehicle to prevent damage to the electric motor and controller.
Do not tow a single vehicle at speeds in excess of 12 mph (19 kph). Do not tow more than three vehicles at a
time. Do not exceed 5 mph (8 kph) while towing multiple vehicles. Towing the vehicle above the recom-
mended speed may result in severe injury and/or damage to the vehicle and other property.
Tow bars are not intended for road use.
If a vehicle is towed in excess of 15 mph the motor brake will engage and slow the vehicle down.
This vehicle is equipped with a Run/Tow switch located underneath the seat on the passenger side. The TOW or
(on
European Models) position, with the key switch in the N position, allows the vehicle to roll freely without activating the
warning beeper and eliminating potential damage to controller or motor. Check to see that vehicles to be towed are
switched to the TOW or
(on European Models) position and the key is turned to the neutral (N) position. Always return
the switch to the RUN/STORAGE or
(on European Models) position after moving the vehicle and make sure that the
key switch is turned to OFF and the key removed.
Never use ropes or chains to tow vehicle(s). Tow bars are available from the E-Z-GO Service Parts Department.
Tow bars are not intended for highway use. Before towing, place the direction selector in neutral (N) and make sure that
the Run/Tow switch in TOW or
(on European Models). Do not ride on a vehicle being towed. Tow bars are designed to
tow only one vehicle at a maximum speed of 12 mph (19 kph) and up to three vehicles at a maximum speed of 5 mph (8
kph).
In the event that there is no power through the controller to release the parking brake with the vehicle in the TOW or
(on European Models) mode, the vehicle can still be moved by using the procedure described under PARKING BRAKE.
