10 Tips for Golf Cart Maintenance Maintaining your precious golf cart is not rocket science. We have listed some 10 essential tips for golf cart maintenance. All it requires is a small investment of your time, money and patience which will help prevent any potential headaches or major issues with your cart ensuring a long happy life for it. #1 Keeping your cart sparkling clean One of the most basic guidelines is to keep the cart sparkling clean! Get it out of the garage and wash it properly. You can hire a golf cart cleaning service provider or just DIY! Some golf cart owners may be nervous to spray a cleaning agent on the batteries. All you need to do is take good care that it doesn't reach any electrical parts. #2 Keeping the batteries clean These batteries are the reason why your golf cart runs smoothly. If you find that there is any corrosion formation, use a hose to get it wet. Secondly, you can also use baking soda and a toothbrush to clean the batteries. This works like a charm! #3 Check the water level every month Older carts need more water. It is advisable to check the water level every month. If your car is older (say 3 years or more), then check the water level every 2-3 weeks. Fill the batteries with treated or distilled water. #4 Charging the cart After every 18-hole round of golf, put your cart on charge straight away. Never let it run out of charge. 18-holes means approximately 7 miles. When your cart is charging, the charger will be too hot to touch and it may take about 18 hours to fully charge. #5 Ensuring Accurate Tire Pressure Dot rated tires have a maximum of 35 psi pressure. Turf tires normally around 22 psi pressure. With correct tire pressure, your cart will have extended battery life, smooth steering and will help to prevent any major issues from occurring. #6 Greasing Greasing the different parts of the cart is recommended to keep it in top condition. #7 Tighten up the screws and bolts Before the cart hits the golf area, check & tighten up the screws and bolts. You must check this on a regular basis. Often when you or an expert perform an analysis/inspection of the cart, you will find that certain bolts and screws need tightening. #8 Regular Servicing You must hire an expert to do regular servicing. Just like our kids and other family members or your car need to go in for regular check-ups, your golf cart needs servicing too. Regular complete analysis and inspection of the golf cart is highly recommended. #9 A Quick Look at the Battery Cables Are the battery cables tight and in place? If not, then you must ensure that the connections are tight enough. If there is a loose connection, the battery may burn up. Accidents are waiting to happen and you must ensure that the cart is in perfect shape. #10 Charging the cart every 30 days In hot weather conditions, the cart may lose its charge while it is in storage. It is recommended to charge the battery every 30 days. Do not let the cart sit in storage without any charge! It should be regularly charged for at least 8 hours. Takeaway Advice We hope that this post helped you to understand the basics of golf cart maintenance. Taking care of the cart is a necessary part of owning a cart.  If you have any questions about anything related to the servicing of your golf cart then please get in touch! We are always happy to help.

Eco Benefits of Using a Golf Cart Saving the Planet One Cart at a Time Let’s face it, golf carts are awesome. No matter what age you are or how many carts you have driven, driving a golf cart is always fun. While driving a cart around the golf course, parking lot, on a tour, or elsewhere is a blast, electric golf carts provide major environmental benefits. Compared to their gas guzzling cousins, electric golf carts provide high quality performance, typically at lower prices, and without having the damaging effects on the environment. Let’s take a look at the eco-benefits of buying electric carts. Primary Benefits While there are a number of reasons to choose an electric cart over petrol, the primary reasons are pollution, noise, and cost. Eco-Friendly Caring for the environment and the world around us is truly a global responsibility. Despite our differences we all must live on the same earth. Visionaries like Elon Musk understand that in order to continue to enjoy the beauty of the world around us we need to reduce pollution and hazardous emissions, especially those produced by gas engines. Unlike gas engines, electric carts produce no harmful emissions and contribute to international energy security by consuming no petroleum per mile driven. With no engine, no gas tank, and no exhaust, they’re considered to be zero-emissions vehicles. As a result, greenhouse gas emissions are eliminated resulting in cleaner, healthier golf courses, public areas, parks and more. Conversely, gas-powered carts run on traditional fuel and produce environmentally harmful carbon monoxide emissions. During the combustion of the engine a chemical reaction occurs which separates the carbon and hydrogen. When the carbon combines with oxygen it creates carbon monoxide. Most people are unaware of how much carbon monoxide a gallon of gasoline can actually produce. In fact, one gallon of gas can actually produce 20lbs of carbon monoxide. Aside from the emissions, gas-powered golf carts can emit a smell of gasoline when garaged in smaller areas and are not permitted in indoor areas. When it comes to protecting the environment, gas golf carts cannot hold a candle to electric carts. Noise Pollution Electric carts are whisper-quiet, producing almost no sound, whereas gas carts are very noisy and contribute significantly to noise pollution. In fact, many residential areas and golf courses have banned gas carts simply because of the noise pollution. Cost In general, electric carts are cheaper to operate than petrol-powered carts. With petrol carts, you are at the mercy of oil prices, whereas with electric carts you only have to pay $.02 to $.04 per kilometre. So, if you are interested in saving money, electric carts are the way to go. Summary The environmental benefits of owning an electric golf cart are overwhelming. As the global community continues to try to reduce the devastating effects that carbon monoxide has on the environment, we can do our part (and save our own money) by choosing electric over gas-powered carts

‘The whole is greater than the sum of its parts,’ the Greek philosopher and scientist, Aristotle once said. This saying echoes our vision, and that is: ‘to produce top-of-the-line electric vehicles for saleAustralia-wide using durable, high quality electrical and mechanical components.’ At eCAR Commercial, we believe that for an industrial electric vehicle to function at its best, it should be made up of top-grade golf cart parts and accessories, and assembled with quality and safety in mind. All golf cart accessories and parts designed by eCAR have important roles to play to maintain our electric vehicles’ functionality and appearance. In our previous article we tackled two integral parts of industrial electric vehicles, namely, tyres and wheels. This time, let’s take a closer look at other important components of electric golf carts: batteries and raw materials. Batteries  Batteries function as the heart of a modern, electric golf cart. These batteries come in 24-, 36-, 48- and 72- volt models. The weight (load) and the speed of the electric golf cart affects the battery performance. Navigating through uneven surfaces, rough terrain or climbing a slope with a heavy load can be taxing on the batteries compared with driving through grass or smooth and even surfaces. Raw Materials The frames of golf carts are commonly made up of rods, tubing and steel plates. The bodies may consist of aluminium and titanium. Aluminium is lightweight, rust-resistant and flexible, and has an excellent strength quality. Using aluminium will make the golf cart easy to move or navigate; however, with its soft finish, aluminium may easily get dented. Titanium, on the other hand, can withstand the rigours of traversing through rough terrain since this metal is more durable than aluminium. It’s also shock-absorbing, rust-resistant and lighter than stainless steel. Some frames and bodies of golf buggies are made up of fibreglass and stainless steel as well. An electric golf cart consists of various parts; each one assembled to create a reliable and durable motorised vehicle. The batteries and raw materials for the body are just two of the many integral parts and accessories needed to create a versatile and functional electric golf cart. When it comes to finding the right eco-friendly electric golf carts that suit your requirements, contact us at eCAR Commercial. We have a wide range of electric utility vehicles and <a style=”color: #39b549″ href=”#”>golf buggies</a> for sale Australia-wide that are ideal for most applications, from residential to commercial and industrial purposes. We also stock a full range of golf cart parts and golf cart accessories that we can deliver to your area, quickly and efficiently.

Integral Components of Golf Carts: Tyres and Wheels Golf carts are customarily used to transport golfers and their equipment from the tee to the green. Modern golf carts, however, are created with improved designs, transforming these otherwise ordinary vehicles into something versatile and multi functional.From golf carts that look just like tourist buses, to ones with classic designs, these modern electric vehicles for sale worldwide are not just limited to golf courses. Today, golf carts are used anywhere, from recreational areas, such as parks, concert grounds and hotels; to commercial and industrial facilities, such as ports, warehouses, malls and even gated communities.Two Integral Components of Golf CartsGolf carts consist of various parts; each one serving a vital role in maintaining the electric utility vehicle’s functionality, design, appearance and safety. Here are two of the most important components of golf carts along with their types and functions.TyresGolf cart tyres determine the ability of the vehicle to navigate through different types of terrain. Today’s golf cart tyres come in various sizes and tread patterns. Both of these factors depend on function rather than personal preference. There are three distinct tread pattern groups, namely: turf or street, all-terrain and knobby or off-road.   Knobby or Off-Road Tyres – are ideal for wooded areas since they dig through sand and mud. These tyres are ideal for rough or uneven surfaces because their thread pattern is more pronounced. Using this on streets or even surfaces make for a bumpy ride. Turf or Street Tyres – are suitable for grass or smooth paved surfaces. They are typically used in golf courses since they don’t damage the grass as you travel from one hole to the next. All-Terrain Tyres – are made with smoother tread patterns than those on knobby tyres, but also much more aggressive ones than those found on standard turf tyres. These all-around type of tyres can be used in various situations. Tread patterns are available in a variety of sizes, though a standard golf cart tyre measures 18 x 8.50 X 8. This means that 18” is the diameter of the tyre, 8.50” is the width at the tread and 8” is the diameter of the wheel. Wheels Tyres are useless without wheels to which they are attached. Typically, the wheels of these electric utility vehicles are made from steel or aluminium. They come in different types of finishes, such as the following: Chrome – This is the most popular and most expensive type of finish. It gives a golf cart wheel a mirror like finish, and is also easy to clean. Machined – A machined golf cart wheel is the most economical type of finish. It is essentially a wheel with no finish. Applying a coating or a coloured paint will ensure that the wheel becomes durable since without it the raw material may discolour. Polished – A high quality polished golf cart wheel has a mirror like finish without the hefty price of a chrome wheel. Usually, no paint or coating is applied to the wheel to keep it looking shiny. Wheels and tyres are two important components of an electric golf buggy or cart. In our next article, we will tackle the other important components, such as batteries and other essential accessories, including dash covers, windshields and more.
