• DO NOT exceed the load limitations as shown on the cart.

• Return power cord to circular cavity when not charging.

• DO NOT allow children to operate or play on cart. Keep cart secured with key (if applicable), at service counter.

DAILY MAINTENANCE CHECK LIST

For optimum cart availability and performance, the following items should be checked daily:

• ELECTRIC CORD—Replace cord if cord is worn or frayed, 3-pronged plug is broken or reel (optional) will not retract. Be sure power outlet provides protection through an operating “Ground Fault Circuit

Interrupter” (GFCI).

• SEAT AND MOUNTING—Tighten if necessary. If cracks or rust occur, or if seat rocks loosely, replace at once.

• SEAT SWITCH—Test and replace if not working properly. Cart must stop when weight is removed from seat.

• THROTTLE—Test for smooth “start, acceleration, deceleration, and stop.” Repair if necessary. Charge or replace battery if needed.

• ANTI-TIP CASTERS—Replace if broken. Maintain height adjustment of

1/8” to 1/2” above floor level.

• GENERAL—Repair or replace any component that may cause a potential safety hazard.

• APPEARANCE—Wipe off and clean as needed for customer satisfaction and for store’s public image.

BATTERY CHARGING INSTRUCTIONS

Please read before charging.

When you hear the low battery alarm beeping it is time to charge the battery. Plug the AC cord into a GFCI outlet only. The battery will fully charge in 4 hours. You may leave the charger plugged in whenever the cart is not in use as it will not harm the battery.

A good rule of thumb is to charge your battery all night, every night, and at every opportunity.

NOTE: Under normal conditions, the battery will last more than 2 years or longer if the above recommendations are followed. Replace with original

Mart Cart battery only. Mart Cart is not responsible for any adverse effects caused by replacement with any other type of battery.

IMPORTANT: Your cart has been equipped with an AGM (Suspended

Electrolyte) Battery during the manufacturing process as original equipment. The manufacturer recommends that you replace the original battery only with the same type and rating to prevent damage to your cart’s internal components, charging system, or personal injury to you and your customer.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT NSTRUCTIONS

DISPOSAL

Please read before disposing your old battery.

Spent batteries must be treated as hazardous waste and disposed of in accordance with local, state and federal guidelines. The BATTERY ACT of 1996 applies to battery disposal and recycling. The life expectancy of the Mart Cart is 7-10 years. The life expectancy of the battery can be 2 years or longer with recommended charging procedures. The disposal of the Mart Cart can be administered by any local metal recycling center. The recycling of the battery can be administered by any local battery recycling center.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

SEAT SWITCH

The seat switch is located under seat. Pressure (weight) on the seat closes the control circuit, and allows the cart to operate.

VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL

The cart’s speed is regulated by a potentiometer. This provides extremely smooth acceleration from 0 to 2.2 MPH, and is located in the control box on the steering column.

CIRCUIT BREAKER

The circuit breaker is designed to protect your electrical system from transient overloads or electrical shorts. Either could cause serious damage without a circuit breaker to open the circuit. The circuit breaker is a manual reset type. It requires manual resetting once it has been tripped. It is located on the battery cover.

CHARGING

HOW IT WORKS: When the power supply cord is plugged into the store’s electrical outlet the battery charger is energized. The charger sends approximately 14.5 volts to the battery for charging. A third wire

(yellow) from the charger output inhibits the PWM until the power to the charger is disconnected. The motor circuit is interrupted until charging is complete. NOTE: The cart will not move under power when the battery is being charged. If the cart moves while plugged in, check the power to your outlet before calling for service.
