2. REMOTE CONTROL
Good for:
On the fairways, around the greens or when you are in the rough.
Not for:
Car parks, bridges, paths.
To start the machine moving forwards, press the forward button. Once the machine is in
motion, continually pressing the “speed up” or “slow down” buttons will either speed up
or slow down the machine respectively. You can also use the cruise control buttons to
start the machine.
To reverse the machine press the “reverse” button (it must first be stopped). When
reversing, the speed is fixed and cannot be increased or decreased.
To steer the machine, press and release either the left or right buttons. When in motion
this will change the direction slightly and continue moving. A prolonged press will
tighten the turn. If you press either button with the Q Remote stationary, the machine
will turn on the spot.
BEST PRACTICE
:
• The remote has a nominal 50m range. However it is recommended that you keep
the machine within 25m so that you can see obstacles in its way.
• Hold the handset in your hand and position the machine approximately 10m in front
of you and on the line of your ball. Make small adjustments to direction and speed
as you see fit. Do not place the handset in your pocket.
• When you get to your ball, park the machine to the right of your ball (or to the left if
you are left handed). Place the handset on the cradle when taking a shot.
• If you are going to walk any distance away from the machine, keep your handset
with you so you can drive it to your next position rather than walking back to it.
STEERING MODES:
There are two modes of steering:
Regular
and
Glide
steering. Regular steering is
suitable for most situations, whereas Glide steering reacts slower.
Regular steering is the default setting and can always be restored by pressing the
STOP
button. In Glide steering mode, the machine steers much more gently. To
activate Glide Steering, press the orange
GLIDE STOP
button and then start the
trolley moving
within three seconds
.
The machine will default back to the Regular steering mode every time the trolley
stops. If you use the GLIDE STOP, then the ‘STOP’ will engage automatically after six
seconds which will reset the steering to Regular.
