The recommended operating procedure for maintaining your used golf trolley

Why pamper your used golf trolley?

A used golf cart isn't just a trendy way to transport your clubs on the green. It's also a faithful companion that, like us, has its moods and quirks… especially if it isn't regularly maintained. At Subloisirs, we know from experience that proper maintenance, even on a used golf trolley, It makes all the difference: longevity, reliability, performance… and significant savings in the long run. Not to mention that nobody wants to get stuck between two potholes because of a dead battery or a loose wheel!

The essential checklist for a top-notch interview

Before you reach for the special polish and toothbrush, let's ask ourselves the right questions: how often is the cart used? By whom? On which course? This quick assessment will help us identify the most important maintenance tasks. Ready? Here's a checklist that will make your neighbors on the green green green with envy.

Washing and cleaning: don't skimp on the soap

A golf trolley, especially a used one, deserves much more than just an occasional rinse. Opt for gentle but regular cleaning with non-abrasive products to preserve the paint and components. Mud or sand accumulating under the wheels will result in noisy rolling and a neglected appearance. Remember to dry the trolley thoroughly to prevent insidious corrosion. Bonus: a clean trolley always looks classier… and it'll impress your neighbor's caddy.

Tire and wheel checks: drive young

Properly inflated tires are essential. This advice also applies to electric go-karts! Check the pressure, the condition of the inner tubes, and the tread wear. Spin the wheels without a load: they should turn smoothly, without resistance, and above all, without sounding like they're dreaming of taking a nap in the rough. A little grease on the axles from time to time will prolong their life (and your good mood).

Test the battery to avoid running out of power.

The nightmare of every professional golfer? A dead battery in the middle of the fairway. On a used electric golf trolley, The battery deserves your full attention. Check the terminals, test the voltage regularly, clean the contacts, and charge the battery after each use, without waiting until it's completely flat (batteries also hate extremes). If it starts to show signs of weakness, it's better to replace it proactively than to end up with a dented cart to push by hand in front of customers.

Braking: to avoid cold sweats on descents

For models equipped with brakes, periodic checks are essential. Safety is paramount! Visually inspect the condition of the brake pads, test their effectiveness, and don't hesitate to replace any worn parts. A small adjustment can prevent a spectacular plunge into the bunker on hole number 18…

Electronics and controls: handle with care

Modern forklifts (even used ones) sometimes rival sports cars in terms of electronics: digital controls, speeds, LEDs… Make it a habit to test all the functions. If a problem appears (sudden failure, loose connection, flashing warning light), don't delay in consulting a specialist – the Subloisirs specialists They saw everything, fixed everything (and rarely lost their smiles).

The condition of the chassis and accessories: the detail that makes all the difference

A thoroughly inspected chassis means fewer surprises, especially on models with high mileage. Carefully check the welds, mounting points, and look for rust or cracks. Don't forget: umbrella holders, ball holders, drink holders… it's a mess to lose your accessories at every turn. If necessary, opt for genuine parts from professional suppliers.

Mistakes you should (really) avoid making

• Neglecting the maintenance of the forklift under the pretext that it's "second-hand" is not an option. No, it hasn't retired; it's counting on you!
• Using overly aggressive household products: goodbye plastics, hello premature cracking.
• Leaving the battery discharged for too long during the winter… In that game, it wins every time (by technical KO).
• Forget about pre-season servicing: the cart also needs a little spring check-up.
• Tinkering with electrical settings blindly: the internet is full of anecdotes from golfers who became impromptu electricians… with varying degrees of success (spoiler: often less).
