Left/Right Tracking adjustment
Your machine has been factory set to go in a straight line, however, minor
adjustments can be made using the trimmer (see below) or bigger adjustments
can be made using the front wheel adjuster. Remove the nut covers on the front
wheel and loosen the nut slightly until you can move the wheel left and right within
a slot, then re-tighten the bolt. Put the machine into freewheel mode with the
wheels in the outer position and push the cart forwards freely, keep adjusting
until a straight line on a flat surface like Tarmac or concrete is achieved. Repeat
this process until the trolley runs straight. This will take time and practice to perfect.
NOTE:
If you have air tires insure that they are both between 20 - 24 psi
(1.38 -1.65 bar) before you start this process.
Electronic Trimming
Ensure that your "Robokaddy" is on a flat level surface, and that it is not
obstructed. It is useful to align your RoboKaddy with an object in the distance
so that you know when the "Robokaddy" is traveling in a straight line.
Hold the "Emergency Stop" and "Off" buttons down simultaneously to activate
the Trim Mode. The Robokaddy will set off forwards at a pre-determined speed.
Use the Left and Right Turn buttons until the "Robokaddy" is traveling in a
straight line.
TIP:
If the Robokaddy has been traveling in a left arc, the Right Turn button is
used to compensate this.
Press the "Emergency Stop" button to store the new settings. The Robokaddy
will now operate as normal.
NOTE –
The degree of turn may vary from one side to the other depending on
bag load and course conditions.

How do I brake the trolley on a downhill slope when in remote mode?
a) Press the off key once and the motors will stop. However the trolley can still
move forward down the slope against the motors. If an “emergency stop” is
required you must press the emergency stop key for more than 1/2 second.
b)
On steep slopes your tires may slip. In these conditions, as with any trolley,
you will need to hold the handle and help the trolley along in manual mode.
Are there any special conditions that I should be aware of?
a) On steep uphill slopes we recommend that you use manual mode.
However, you may like to try either zigzagging up the hill or directing the
trolley to a lesser gradient.
b) On steep slopes down hill ensure that you keep full control of the
RoboKaddy. In the most difficult of conditions it is best to hold the handle
and walk it down in manual mode.
How do I disengage the wheels for freewheel use?
a) On each wheel slide the yellow lever on the hub cap and pull the wheel
outwards by a couple of millimetres. Now release the yellow lever and
pull out again until it clicks into place. The wheel will now freewheel. To
re-engage, reverse the instructions above ensuring the pins enter the holes
on the inside of the wheels.
