MAINTENANCE SERVICE MANUAL

1. Foreword

Congratulations on the purchase of your Navigator G800 buggy.

To ensure continued efficiency of your MGI motorised buggy, regular maintenance at periodic intervals is essential. For guidance, this booklet contains a schedule applicable to the maintenance required at the appropriate times and a service record.

2. Important

If operating in conditions such as those mentioned below, speed controls, clutches, frame alignment, adjustment, tightening and axle alignment should be serviced at more frequent intervals than specified in this booklet: a. playing more than twice a week b. damp or wet conditions c. rough, dusty or sandy conditions d. hilly conditions

3. Warranty Registration

Warranty registration can be made on-line at www.mgi-golf.com

Important: To locate your serial number, look underneath the top control box or underneath the battery tray. It will begin with the letters AN.

Example: AN1BLi104101047

4. Warranty Service Problem

Purchase date of the motorised buggy must be given before warranty is accepted for processing. In the event of a need for warranty service, either refer to the list of authorised service centres on our website or email [email protected]

5. Warranty Policy

Navigator G800 is covered for a period of 24 months from date of the purchase, MGI or an authorised service centre or person will repair or replace free of charge any parts found to be defective in materials or workmanship under normal use provided that:

1. The Navigator G800 has been properly used, maintained and regularly serviced

2. The replacement or repair is performed by an authorised MGI service centre or the owner with MGI approval.

1

6. Warranty Exclusions

– the following events will void warranty: a. Any alteration performed by non authorised people or companies.

b. Fitting of parts or accessories not recommended by MGI.

c. Any damage caused by continued operation of the motorised buggy after it is known to be defective.

d. Damaged seat support bracket on buggy chassis

All implied warranties [save those preserved by statute] are excluded. Liability for consequential damages under any and all warranties are excluded to the extent exclusion is permitted by law.

7. Parts Installed During Warranty

Warranty coverage for components installed during a motorised buggy

’s warranty period shall consist of the duration of the buggy

’s warranty period, provided the warranty installation is performed by MGI, an authorised service centre or the buggy owner on approval. Replacement of parts under warranty will not extend the warranty of the buggy or parts.

8. Preventative Maintenance Program

To properly provide for the continued operation of your motorised buggy, MGI has introduced its Preventative Maintenance Program [PMP]. The PMP consists of work to be carried out by both the owner and authorised service centres. To properly maintain the warranty of your MGI motorised buggy, it is essential that this work is carried out. If the work carried out by the authorised service centre is to replace parts that are part of the maintenance schedule, the owner will be charged for the parts and labour. If the work to be carried out is part of warranty, MGI will bear the cost.

9. Cleaning Your Motorised Buggy [See Maintenance Schedule]

For years of good operation, your buggy requires care and attention. Keep your buggy clean by using a cloth with warm water and a mild detergent. Do not hose down your buggy under any circumstance, as your buggy has electronic components. Ensure that the seat stem bracket is free from sand.

2

10. Rear Wheel Axles [See Maintenance Schedule]

The rear wheel stub axles need to be lubricated regularly. Remove the rear wheels by depressing the spring clip and at the same time pull off the wheel. Apply Petroleum Jelly or light grease to the stub axles. Use a very small amount as the grease can attract sand. If you play in sandy conditions you should clean your axle and regrease fortnightly.

To refit the rear wheels you will need to align the wheel

’s four sided slot to the axle pin to ensure the wheels are properly engaged.

11. Upper & Lower Bag Straps [See Maintenance Schedule]

The bag straps should be replaced as per the Service Schedule. The upper bag strap can be replaced by:

1. Removing the left and right hand straps form the upper bag support

2. Undo and remove the screws holding the strap in position on the bag support

3. Remove and replace both bag straps

4. Insert bag strap securing screws

12. Correcting the Alignment of your Motorised Buggy

If during use, under Top Box control you find that the buggy veers to the right or left, please follow the instructions below to correct this problem:

1. If the buggy veers to the left, face the front wheel of the buggy and use the Allen key provided to screw the right bolt clockwise or the left bolt anti-clockwise.

2. If the buggy veers to the right, face the front wheel of the buggy and use the allen key provided to screw the left bolt clockwise or the right bolt anti clockwise. Test run the buggy and repeat the process until the buggy runs straight.

3

13. MGI Service Schedule

INSTRUCTION MANUAL

IMPORTANT: Battery should be charged overnight prior to using your buggy

1. Charging and care of the battery

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

Always charge the battery after each use

Your LI battery is designed for 18 holes only. Playing only 18 holes with your battery before recharging will mean less stress for your battery and will ensure your battery has a long life.

Charge and store the battery in a warm and dry environment

The Li Charger can only be used to charge Li batteries from MGI

Do not open either the Li battery or Li charger. Doing so is dangerous and will void warranty

Your charger is fully automatic. It is advised that you leave your battery connected to its charger between use

If for any reason you do not play golf for a long period, you may disconnect the battery from the charger, but only after you have fully charged the battery.

Please ensure you recharge the battery prior to its next use.

2. Connecting the battery

•

•

•

Place battery in tray with leads facing the front of the buggy

Secure the battery with the battery strap

Connect the battery lead to the battery tray

Do NOT connect unmatched batteries or chargers otherwise the warranty on each item will be void.

•

•

•

•

•

During play, minimise the drain on the battery by avoiding taking your buggy into the rough whenever possible.

Avoid as much as possible using the buggy to pull you up the hills

In between use, always leave the charger connected to the battery with power on.

The battery is a sealed battery. If you are intending to take your buggy and battery on air travel, we advise that you make contact with your airline prior to travel.

Be very careful not to drop your battery. The battery casing is easily cracked and the battery

’s subsequent life will be severely compromised.

6

LED Indicator

-The Red LED illuminates to indicate the charger is power on.

-The Yellow LED indicates the battery is charging.

-The LED will turn Green when the battery is fully charged.

-The LED will flash Green when the battery is on float charge.

-The 24v lithium ion charger will power off automatically after being on float charge for 18 hours.

3. Fitting the battery

Once charged, the battery can be fitted to the buggy. The battery is in a plastic case with lift assist moulding and fused battery leads.

a. Place your battery in the tray with the leads facing to the front of the buggy. b. Ensure the white dots on fused battery lead connection are aligned with the

battery tray c. The battery lead can now be connected to the battery tray. Connect blue to blue and

black to black for 24v Li battery

4. Battery Lead Fuse

Your battery has a 30 amp fuse connected to the battery lead. The 30 amp fuse helps protect the buggy

’s control board against a power surge.

An extra fuse is supplied with your buggy.

In the unlikelihood of your buggy stopping, the reason could be the fuse has blown. Check and replace if necessary.

The replacement of the fuse will allow you to continue using your buggy. If the fuse blows, contact your service centre.

7

5. Fail Safe Connection

Your buggy has been equipped with fail safe battery connection. Your buggy will only start if the speed control has first been switched off.

6. Attaching / Removing Wheels

To attach the wheels, place the wheel on the axle. Push the release tag across and push the wheel on as far as it can. You will notice you need to match up the female slots of the wheel and the male pin of the axle. When placed in position simply release the button. You will notice you hear a “click” when the wheel is properly secured. To check that the wheel is properly in positio pull on the wheel. If it is properly in position it will not move.

7. Front wheel suspension system

Your buggy has a unique front wheel system. The front wheel can swivel 360 degrees. The main advantage of this is that your buggy is highly manouverable. You only need to turn the buggy handle and your buggy will turn. The suspension helps reduce the amount of shock the buggy will take when going over hills, bumps, ruts etc.

8. Engaging the 4th wheel

To avoid damage to your buggy always engage the 4th wheel prior to playing golf, regardless of the terrain you are playing on. To engage the 4th wheel, pull on the spring loaded locking pin, begin to slide the 4th wheel back, release the locking pin and continue sliding the 4th wheel back until the locking pin locates itself into position.

The 4th wheel should be cleaned regularly. Remove the 4th wheel by pulling on the spring loaded locking pin and slide the 4th wheel all the way out of its housing. The 4th wheel can then be cleaned with a cloth. Then reinsert the 4th wheel into its housing and pull on the spring loaded locking pin.

8

9. Free wheeling

Your buggy uses a gear system, whereby the two rear wheels do not free wheel. The motors need to be running for the buggy to move. If for some reason your buggy stops operating during your golf round your buggy can free wheel. Simply depress the quick release tag and at the same time move the wheel outwords approximately 10mm from its original position. By doing this, you have disconnected the wheels from the drive and they can rotate freely.

10. Folding/unfolding your buggy

Practice unfolding and folding the buggy using the steps below. This means when you go to play golf you will be somewhat familiar with this task.

1. Press the red height adjusting button located halfway down the handle [Diagram 1]

2. Lift the handle gently and at the same time turn the lower release button on front wheel assembly anti-clockwise [Diagram 2]

3. Lift the main handle up completely. Both the top handle and the lower handle will click into place. Now lift the top bag support up until it clicks into place also

4. The top handle has two positions. Adjust to suit your requirements by pressing the red height adjusting button

5. Slide seat into the bracket on the right side of the buggy [Diagram 3]

6. Slide sand bucket loop into the bracket on the left side of the buggy. Use the screw to secure the sand bucket loop [Diagram 4]

MOST IMPORTANT: DEPRESS THE SEAT WITH YOUR HAND BEFORE SITTING.

DO NOT USE THE SEAT ON UNEVEN SURFACES.

*MGI does not warrant any seat support brackets that are damaged or bent.

11. Fitting your Golf Bag

Securing the top bag strap

1. Provide a good position for the positioning of both ends of the elasticised straps

2. Stretch the longer end of the strap and secure to the extended shorter end

3. The attached strap should now be connected

Adjusting the length of the top strap

•

The plastic bar on the longer length can be adjusted to ensure the bag is secured properly in place.

Securing the lower bag strap

•

Simply by holding the central tag, pull the elasticised strap over the bottom of the golf bag.

12. Assembling the Umbrella Holder

Your buggy comes with an umbrella holder. The umbrella holder needs to be bolted into position.

When not in use the umbrella holder can be turned to its side. If you take your buggy home in your car, you may need to do that prior to folding the buggy down.

Your umbrella holder can be adjusted both to the side and backwards and forwards. The umbrella is secured inside the umbrella holder by tightening the plastic bolt located near the top of the holder.

DO NOT LEAVE YOUR UMBRELLA UP IN THE UMBRELLA HOLDER IN WINDY

CONDITIONS.

If the wind catches the umbrella, it could cause your buggy to tip over and cause damage, which will not be covered by warranty.

19. Remote Control features

Charging your remote control - Before you start using your Navigator G800 buggy you must fully charge the remote control internal lithium ion battery for approximately 6 hours or overnight with the AC charger. The top right indicator light will flash while charging.

Connect the AC world charger to a suitable power source, using the compatible AC pin plug. Plug the USB cable from the AC charger into the remote control. The USB connector is located on the bottom of the remote control. Ensure that the orientation of the plug matches the socket in the remote control unit.

Turn on the power to the AC adapter. You should allow six hours to fully charge the battery. You cannot over-charge the battery so you can leave it charging in between use.

You can also charge the remote control using the supplied USB cable and connecting it to a computer. Note that you should not charge a completely flat battery using this method. You should use the AC charger. The battery will take longer to charge when using the USB cord.

Forward Arrow - Press to accelerate the buggy. The longer you depress the button, the faster the buggy travels. Please note: If you wish to regain the speed you were travelling at prior to the last stop, simply press the forward button twice in succession. The buggy will accelerate to the last speed setting. This feature works only when you press the stop button to stop the buggy rather than pressing the down arrow.

Down Arrow - Decreases the speed and provides for reverse. If you are moving forward, the down arrow can be used to decrease speed, the longer the pressure, the slower the speed. To operate the Reverse mode you must stop the buggy first. Press the down arrow and the buggy will reverse. The buggy will move in the backward direction only whilst you keep the down

13

arrow depressed. If you take your finger off the down arrow the buggy will stop [safety feature].

Left and Right Arrow- Press the appropriate turn command and keep pressed until the degree of turn is achieved. Momentary pressurewill make a small adjustment to the direction, whilst prolonged will increase the amount of turn.

Soft Braking - The Navigator G800 is equipped with electronic soft braking. This means when you press the stop button the buggy will roll to a stop. The range of the Navigator G800 is up to 80 metres. It also has a heart beat interaction between the transmitter and receiver. This means they stay in contact with each other at all times. If the buggy goes out of range of the transmitter your

Navigator G800 will stop automatically.

Locking your remote - Your Remote Control is slim line and fits comfortably in your pocket. To prevent the buggy from being accidentally turned on, press top right button once and the red LED will flash 3 times. This will lock the controls of the remote. To unlock the Remote press the top left button once and the green LED will flash 3 times.

Suggestion: do not send the buggy off using the buggy top box control when the remote is locked.

The remote needs to be unlocked before it can control the buggy. If you do try to use the Remote

Control when it is locked the red LED will flash 3 times.

22. The Navigation System

– How it works

Navigation on [Nav On]

– By pressing Nav On the navigation system is turned on. The indicator light under the Nav On button will illuminate green each time you use a command whilst navigation is on. The navigation system ensures the buggy maintains its direction regardless of the terrain.

The buggy will automatically brake or accelerate either wheel to maintain its direction. The Top

Box speed setting [S1-9] will also have a green line under it to indicate Nav On.

Useful hint: On a steep incline, the gradient may force the buggy off line. You do not need to adjust the buggy. The buggy will work its way back on course. In addition, if the buggy hits a tuft of grass or other object, the buggy will momentarily be forced off course. Do not be concerned. The buggy knows where to go and will get back on track quickly.

Navigation off [Nav Off] -

By pressing “Nav Off”, the navigation system is turned off. The indicator light under the Nav Off button will illuminate red each time you use a command whilst navigation is off. The Top Box speed setting [S1-9] will also have a red line under it indicate Nav Off.

Important:

When you use the controls on the buggy‟s handlebar, the navigation system turns off automatically. This will enable you to maneuver the buggy. The mode light on the handlebar will turn red when navigation turns off.

When you switch between using the handlebar controls and the remote control, the buggy remembers if the remote was in “Nav On” or “Nav Off”. If the last command on the remote was “Nav On”, th e first command using the remote will also be “Nav On”. You can change this by pressing “Nav

Of f“ to switch off the navigation system [only when buggy is moving forward]. When your buggy is turned on, the remote control can be used in the same way as the controls on the handlebar.

23. Straight Tracking

Your Navigator G800 is a highly sophisticated and patented electronic gyroscope as the straight tracking system to steer the buggy when under remote control. The gyroscope is tilt compensated to enable true sterring over a wide range of grades you expect to encounter on the average golf course.

24. Understanding GPS

The

Sureshotgps™ function of the buggy uses the Global Positioning System [GPS] to work out how far you are from the green or hazard. The system relies on the buggy receiving signals from orbiting GPS satellites.

How long does it take to gain reception from the satellites?

Ensure your buggy has been turned on outside for at least five minutes before you wish to use it.

Can I use my Navigator G800 inside the home or office?

The

Sureshotgps™ function will not generally gain reception inside. For best accuracy, your

Navigator G800 should have an unimpeded view of the sky.

15

25. Checking for GPS Signal

Before checking the status of your GPS signal, ensure you have clear sky above your buggy and the Navigator G800 unit has been on for at least five minutes.

You can check the status of GPS reception by going to:

Sureshot Homepage > Features > Status > GPS Information > GPS Signal

It will display the satellite number and signal strength for each satellite. A blue bar indicates that the satellite is being used in the position calculation. A red bar indicates that the satellite signal is being received but it is not used in the position calculation. The latitude and longitude of the current position is also displayed.

The GPS signal strength is also displayed via a five column bar graph on the main menu page.

Once again, a blue bar indicates that the satellite is being used in the position calculation. A red bar indicates that the satellite signal is being received but it is not used in the position calculation.
