A- Chassis B- Electronic Front Drive C- Upper Caddie Structure Y L B M E S S A 10 Assembling your X-Series Motorcaddie Your Kangaroo X-Series Motorcaddie is shipped without the rear wheels attached. See pages 37 and 38 for rear wheel assembly and removal instructions. Figure 2 1. Steady the Chassis by using the hand-hold, located in the bottom of the battery tray. Insert the Electronic Front Drive into the hole located in front of the battery tray, and close the draw latch. (Figure 1) Note: The Upper Caddie Structure and Electronic Front Drive will fit in either holetherefore be sure the motor is on the top right side, while standing behind the X-Series. 2. Insert the Upper Caddie Structure into the top of the Chassis just behind the battery tray, and close the draw latch. (Figure 2) 3. Fold down the Flex-Adjust Bag Support (Figure 7 on page 15) until it comes to a stop. 4. Remove the three plastic tie-wrap bands from the handle. Simply press down on each of the red tabs on the tie-wraps that are encircling the handle grips. While pressing down on the red tab, push the extended edge back through the locking mechanism to loosen the hold on the handle grip. Note: Make sure the Function Switch is in the OFF position. Begin to establish the habit of putting the switch in the OFF position while assembling your Kangaroo X-Series. Y L B M E S S A Cont:
12 Figure 1 Figure 3 Figure 5 Figure 4 5. Connect the plug from the Upper Caddie Structure to the receptacle in the Chassis. (Figure 3) Note: Always handle the plug when connecting or disconnecting the control cable. Pulling on the wire can cause damage. 6. Connect the Electronic Front Drive by inserting the black plug into the receptacle on the lower left of the Remote Receiver. Push inward on the lock ring while twisting it clockwise until it stops. (Figure 4) 7. Remove the black plastic cover (not shown) from the battery terminal. Set the battery into the battery tray with the terminals to the back of battery tray. (Figure 5) a. Connect the RED clip to the (+) positive terminal. b. Connect the BLACK clip to the (-) negative terminal. Note: If the cables are accidentally reversed, your X-Series will not run until the polarity is corrected.
(Your X-Series is equipped with reverse-polarity protection, and connecting the terminals backwards will not harm you or the unit.) Adjustments Your X-Series comes with an assortment of Allen-type wrenches. They are provided for adjustments, keeping screws tight, and for adding optional equipment. Y L B M E S S A 14 Figure 7 Draw latch:
If the Upper Caddie Structure or Electronic Front Drive is loose, turn the draw latch metal adjustment ring clockwise to tighten. Do not over-tighten the adjustment ring as this may cause the draw latch to break when engaged. If the draw latch will not lock in place, loosen the draw latch by turning the metal adjustment ring counter-clockwise.
(Figure 6) Note: The metal adjustment ring may be difficult to turn. A standard pair of needle nose pliers can be used to make adjustments. To avoid possible breakage, always close draw latches before placing Chassis into your car. Flex-Adjust Bag Support:
The Flex-Adjust Bag Support on the Upper Caddie Structure(Figure 7), also referred to as the yoke, is designed to fold up for easy transportation and storage. It can be adjusted to grip your golf bag by bending the arms open or closed as needed. The Flex-Adjust Bag Support is attached to the stainless steel tubing at the best position to hold most golf bags securely. If you have an unusual bag, or a personal preference for its position, its clamp can be moved up or down the tubing to any point you like. The Bag Support is secured with four 5/32 Allen-type machine screws and a suitable wrench is provided with your X-Series. Simply loosen the four screws and adjust the clamps accordingly, then re-tighten securely. Y L B M E S S A 16 Figure 6 Power Controls and Operation Figure 9 Accelerator Speed is controlled by the Accelerator located between the handle grips. The decal indicates speed in relation to the Accelerator position. (Figure 8) Note: Turning the Accelerator all the way down does not turn off Power Controls, even if your X-Series is not moving. There is a feature, known in technical terms as ramp up, that automatically provides a gentle start at any setting up to, and including, full speed. Even so, your X-Series is very powerful, and it is best to start out at lower speeds. Function Switch The Function Switch is located on the top center of the handle. (Figure 9) Switch to the MANUAL mode when remote control is not desired. Switch to REMOTE mode when you are ready to resume play with Remote Guidance. Figure 8 I S N O T A R E P O D N A S L O R T N O C 18 Normal Operation:
1. Prior to beginning play, rotate the Accelerator to the SET position (Figure 8 on page 17). You can vary the Accelerator to suit your own walking pace after you begin play. 2. Position the Function Switch to ON (Figure 9 on page 17). 3. Position the Function Switch to the MANUAL position when Remote Guidance is not desired. Manual Mode is recommended when using your X-Series in parking lots, in tight spots, and around water hazards. 4. Position the Function Switch to the REMOTE position when you are ready to begin play with Remote Guidance. 5. Press the GO button on the Remote Transmitter. Your X-Series will start and ramp up to your preset speed. Press GO a second time and your X-series will increase its speed, automatically ramping up to 90% of its maximum speed (approximately 4.5 mph). Press GO a third time and your X-Series will automatically decrease to your original preset speed. If you press GO a fourth time, your X-Series will again increase to 90% of its maximum speed. Each activation of GO while your X-Series is moving will alternate between your preset speed and 90% maximum speed. (Figure 10) Cont:
I S N O T A R E P O D N A S L O R T N O C Figure 10 20 6. To stop your X-Series, press STOP on the Remote Transmitter. To achieve maximum braking the Function Switch must be turned OFF. There is no need to change the accelerator when stopping and re-starting. (Figure 11) Reminder: The arrows on the Remote Transmitter indicate steering direction as if you were operating your X-Series manually. If your X-Series is coming toward you, the steering direction of the arrows are reversed. 7. If you stop your X-Series on a hill, always turn it across the slope to park it. The X-Series models do not have a parking brake and will creep down a hill on their own. Runaway and Circuitry Protection Your X-Series will automatically shut itself off if the Function switch is left in Remote or Manual position for an extended period of time. The reason for this is to prevent a possible runaway situation. This also allows the solid state circuitry a cool-down period. To avoid activation of this safeguard, turn the Function switch OFF each time you stop. Merely turning the speed all the way down will not reset this internal timer and will cause your X-Series to unexpectedly shut off. If you forget, and your X-Series unexpectedly cuts out or is dead, turn the Function Switch to OFF and then back ON to restart your X-Series. I S N O T A R E P O D N A S L O R T N O C Figure 11 22 Figure 12 Figure 14 Remote Guidance System Remote Guidance System consists of three components the Remote Transmitter (Figure 12), Remote Receiver
(Figure 13), and Electronic Front Drive (Figure 14). Remote Guidance System operates on an FM Pulse Code Transmittal System that is FCC approved, and requires no operators license. Remote Guidance System is relatively low power (milliamps) and is subject to little outside interference. Remote Transmitter and Remote Receiver devices comply with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation of these devices is subject to the following two conditions: (1) The devices may not cause harmful interference, and (2) The devices must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause unintended operation. The antenna is permanently mounted inside the Remote Receiver to make it more water resistant. You should not attempt to open the Remote Receiver - doing so will break the seal and void the warranty. Activating Remote Guidance System See Power Controls & Operations on page 18. M E T S Y S E C N A D U G E T O M E R I Figure 13 24 Centering the Steerable Front Wheel Before you begin play the front wheel must be centered, so your X-Series will track straight. Use the centering knob
(Figure 15) on the rear of the Remote Receiver to adjust the front wheel. Do not attempt to turn the front wheel by hand. The front wheel must be centered electronically by turning the black knob. The knob is very sensitive. Rotate it slowly to adjust the front wheel right or left as needed. When the front wheel is centered, the knob can be turned slightly right or left without the wheel moving. If the wheel is not centered, any turn of the knob will cause the wheel to swivel. Automatic Self-Centering Front Wheel Remote Guidance Systems built-in centering control will automatically center the front wheel every time you stop transmitting a directional signal with the Remote Transmitter. The centering function will not work properly unless you center the front wheel using the electronic centering knob (as described above). During normal operation, a sensor in the Remote Guidance System detects course conditions and allows for small terrain deviations, thus allowing your X-Series to follow a straight line of travel. If for any reason the front wheel becomes jammed and cannot return to center, the self-centering feature will shut off after 6 seconds. To dislodge the obstacle, turn the Function Switch to OFF and remove the obstruction. Turn the power back ON. The wheel should now automatically align itself. If it does not, re-adjust using the centering knob as shown on this page. M E T S Y S E C N A D U G E T O M E R I Figure 15 Cont:
26 The centering and directional control in the Electronic Front Drive can be damaged if the unit rams into any obstacle. When your X-Series must be maneuvered in close areas, it may be best to do so manually; for instance, across bridges, around trees, or in parking lots. X-Series includes a Bumper Guard to help protect the centering device. Damage caused by hitting obstacles is not covered under the manufacturers warranty. All Remote Guidance System units must be returned to Kangaroo for proper repair. There are no user serviceable components inside. Electronics (Remote Receiver and Remote Transmitter) Remote Receiver The Remote Receiver is the main control center of the Remote Guidance System. It processes and relays all of the signals from the Remote Transmitter to the Electronic Front Drive. Automatic Safety Shut-Off The Remote Receiver is designed to receive a signal from the Remote Transmitter every 28 to 30 seconds. If for any reason the unit does not receive a signal within this time span, it will automatically shut off. The auto shut-off will also stop your X-Series if it gets out of signal range. This is a required safety function to prevent runaway. In normal use, most golfers will be making many directional adjustment signal transmissions. However, if you do not press any button on the Remote Transmitter for 30 seconds, your X-series will stop. This is a safety feature, not a defect. If your X-Series stops, just press the GO button and the X-Series will start again. Remote Transmitter The Remote Transmitter is supplied with a fresh, standard Alkaline 9-volt battery. The battery compartment is located on the bottom rear of the transmitter. The cover slides off for easy battery replacement. Under normal use, the 9-volt battery should last 3 months. Replace the Remote Transmitter battery at least every three months. Keep Dry Use great care in operating your X-Series around water. The Remote Transmitter is sealed to be water resistant. However, if dropped into a puddle, pond, or creek, it may become damaged. The Remote Receiver should be protected at all times against water damage. If your X-Series runs into a body of water and the Remote Receiver becomes submerged, the electronic circuit board inside will be destroyed. When washing the unit, avoid direct water contact with the Remote Receiver. If the Remote Guidance System electronics are damaged by extreme exposure to water, e.g. submerged in a pond, the damage will not be covered under the manufacturers warranty. M E T S Y S E C N A D U G E T O M E R I 28 Confirm Command Indicator 1. When a signal is given, the red Confirm Command light (Figure 15) on the Remote Transmitter will flash twice once with the pressing of the button, and again when the button is released, confirming your command. NOTE: The buttons are easy to press. There is no need for excessive force. When the indicator light flashes, the signal has been sent. 2. When the 9-volt battery is weak, the light will stay on continuously, indicating the 9-volt battery must be replaced. Remote Guidance System may have a loss of signal strength and a loss of range when the Remote Transmitter battery is weak. To test the battery, press and hold any function button. If the light stays on while the button is depressed, the battery is weak and should be replaced. The position of the Remote Transmitter is important during signal transmission. In order to achieve maximum range, hold the Remote Transmitter with the control buttons on top, and the back of the Remote Transmitter toward the ground. Point the front of the Remote Transmitter toward your X-Series. The Remote Transmitter will operate if held in other positions, but the overall operating range will be decreased. The range will also be affected if there are obstacles between you and your X-Series such as trees, buildings, cars, etc. Play it Safe Expect an orientation period to learn the controls of the Remote Guidance System. Do not try to learn the controls in close quarters. Never try to operate your X-Series while it is out of your sight! Play it safe! Your new X-Series is not a toy. Always use common sense while operating. Figure 15 M E T S Y S E C N A D U G E T O M E R I 30 Manual Steering Operation To operate your X-Series in Manual Mode, Press the Remote Transmitters STOP button. Then turn the Function switch to MANUAL. Adjust the Accelerator if necessary. Padded Case for Remote Transmitter Included with your new X-Series is an attractive Padded Case screenprinted with Kangaroo logo (Figure 16). It can be worn two ways:
1. Looped over a belt with the back flap secured by the Velcro. 2. Slipped over the waistband of pants or a skirt. Figure 16 Figure 18 Try it both ways, to decide which you prefer! The Padded Cases long back flap is stiff enough to hold the Remote Transmitter secure. When you put your Remote Transmitter away, flip the long flap forward, secure with Velcro, and store in a safe, dry place. Remote Transmitter Swivel Clip System & Belt Clip The Remote Transmitter Swivel Clip System (standard on both MAX and ABX) mounts securely to the Scorecard Platform (Figure 17). The included Remote Transmitter Belt Clip can also be worn on your belt, pocket or golf bag. (Figure 18) M E T S Y S E C N A D U G E T O M E R I Figure 17 32 AutoBrake Operation As your X-Series travels downhill with the power switched ON, turn the Accelerator downward to a slower setting. Your X-Series will slow down and give you a feeling of security as you travel down the hill. If the slope is extremely steep, you may turn the Function Switch OFF, which will provide approximately 50% more braking power than just turning the Accelerator to its slowest setting. If this is too much braking power, alternate turning the Function switch OFF and ON until you reach the bottom of the hill. IMPORTANT: If you must tow your X-Series either forward or backward, always place it into Free-Wheeling Mode FIRST! Gear damage may result from pulling or pushing your X-Series with great force or for long distances. Damage incurred from failure to disengage drive wheels from gear train is NOT covered by warranty. See Free-Wheeling instructions on page 35 & 36. AutoBrake is not intended to stop your X-Series. Rather, it is used for decreasing speed when going down hills. AutoBrake does not function as a parking brake. Therefore, always make sure your X-Series is turned sideways when stopped on a slope. E K A R B O T U A 34 Hillcrest ABX Free-Wheeling Mode Free-Wheeling means that the two drive wheels on your X-Series turn freely without engaging the axle or drive train. If you must tow your X-Series either forward or backward, ALWAYS place it in Free-Wheeling Mode first!
Gear damage will result from pulling or pushing with great force. Damage from failure to disengage the drive wheels from the gear train is not covered by the warranty. To position each wheel into Free-Wheeling Mode, pull the release tab on the inside of the wheel towards the tire.
(Figure 19) Slide the wheel outward slightly on the axle. Position the wheel so that the release tab is in the Free-
Wheel groove. Release the tab to allow it to lock in the proper groove. The wheel should spin freely. Hub drive pins will no longer be engaged into the wheels drive holes. Now try to move the wheel outward on the axle to ensure the release tab is locked. The wheel will NOT slide off the axle if properly positioned. Returning Wheels to Drive Mode While pulling the release tab, slip wheel all the way against the hub, aligning the drive pins on the hub into the drive holes in the wheel. When the wheel is on the axle, against the hub with the drive pins engaged, release the tab. This will allow the release tab to lock into the drive groove. The wheel should now be securely mounted on the axle.

E E R F 36 36 Figure 19 Rear Wheel Assembly and Removal Figure 21 Both rear wheels on your X-Series may be easily removed and replaced. Wheels are held in place by a spring-loaded release tab on the inside of each wheel. The tab seats into a groove on the axle. There is a groove for the Drive position and one for Free-Wheeling Mode. To install the wheel on the axle, pull the wheel release tab back. (Figure 20) While holding the release tab, place the wheel on the end of the axle. Slip wheel all the way against the hub, aligning the drive pins on the hub into the drive holes in the wheel. When the wheel is on the axle, against the hub with drive pins engaged, release the tab.
(Figure 21) This will allow the release tab to lock into the Drive groove, and the wheel should now be securely mounted on the axle. Wheels should NOT slide off the axle. To remove the wheels, pull the release tab back toward the tire and slide the wheel off axle. Wheels are not left/right specific and can be installed on either side. Figure 20 L A V O M E R

Y L B M E S S A L E E H W R A E R 38 Figure 22 Figure 24 Battery & Charger Before Using Your Battery The Hillcrest X-Gel Deep Cycle Battery is shipped in an 80% charged state. Prior to your first round of golf, we recommend a full 12-hour charge when you receive the new battery. To Charge Your X-Series Battery with the ReadyPro Electronic Charger 1. Disconnect the battery from your X-Series. (Figure 22) Or, if this is your first time charging your battery, be sure to remove the safety cap. (Figure 23) 2. Be sure the charger is UNPLUGGED from the wall when connecting or disconnecting the battery. Doing so will avoid sparks or shocks and will reset the charging circuits. 3. Connect the RED (+) battery clip on the charger to the POSITIVE (+) terminal on the battery. Connect the BLACK (-) clip to the NEGATIVE (-) terminal on the battery. (Figure 24) 4. Plug the charger into a standard 110 / 120-volt household outlet. 5. When the battery is fully charged, both the red light and the green light will glow brightly. R E G R A H C
&
Y R E T T A B Figure 23 6. Once your battery is fully charged, leave the charger plugged in and the battery connected when not in use. This will maintain your battery in good condition, especially during periods of non-use. 40 Keep Your Battery Connected to the ReadyPro Charger at ALL TIMES Always recharge your battery immediately after each use! Never wait a day before recharging. If the battery is left discharged for long periods of time it will deteriorate faster, shortening the life of your new battery. Never use the battery to play more than 18 holes of golf on a single charge. Doing so will lessen the life of your battery. An unused TG-31 battery will lose its charge in about 1 month / 30 days. If it remains discharged, it can be permanently damaged. To maintain your batterys life, it must remain connected to the charger while not in use. Failure to do so will void the warranty. About the ReadyPro Electronic Battery Charger The ReadyPro charger is designed to charge 12-volt, deep-cycle, gel-filled batteries (such as your special Hillcrest X-Gel battery). It is also designed to remain connected to your battery indefinitely when you are not playing, to maintain the battery in good condition while stored for long periods of time. The standby charging mode is sufficiently low to ensure that the battery will not be over-charged. Explanation of Charger Lights If RED light only is illuminated, charger is on and battery is charging, but NOT READY for use. (The length of time will depend on batterys level of discharge the more its discharged, the longer the RED light will stay illuminated.) If RED AND GREEN lights are illuminated at the same time, your battery is ready for 9 HOLES of use.
(This status lasts approximately 20 minutes to one hour before battery is fully charged.) If GREEN light only is illuminated, battery is fully charged and is ready for 18 HOLES of use. Indications that Your Battery Needs Replacement If you never get the GREEN light, even after 24 hours of charging, you know that your battery has a dead cell. The battery can no longer achieve a full charge, and should be replaced when it cant power your Kangaroo Sportcaddie for 18 holes. If the GREEN light is illuminated after a charging cycle, but you no longer get 18 holes of sufficient power, your battery has sulfated with age and use. Your battery is being recharged to full voltage, but it no longer has sufficient capacity to power your Kangaroo Sportcaddie for a round of golf. Maintenance The Hillcrest X-Gel is a maintenance-free sealed battery. Warranty See pages 5455. Troubleshooting Problems See pages 5762. R E G R A H C

Your X-Series has been designed and manufactured to be essentially maintenance free. Do not open or attempt to service the transaxle gear train. It is tuned at the factory to minimize gear noise. It also contains a special lubricant, which is sealed inside by a gasket. The control system is well designed, with quality parts and full protection circuitry. There are no user serviceable components. Keep it Clean!
The only type of maintenance required for your X-Series is cosmetic. Use soap or mild detergent and water, then rinse with clean water. You MUST avoid getting water in the control plugs. Your X-Series can dry in the sun, but the stainless steel tubing should be wiped dry for the best luster. Never use an abrasive cleaner. Stainless Steel Components & Tires It is a good idea to use a quality automotive wax on the stainless steel to prevent fingerprints and smudges from showing up. The X-Series polyurethane tires are made of a compound unaffected by conditions that deteriorate ordinary rubber. You may use a cleaner/preservative such as Armorall, or a similar product, to keep tires looking like new. Normal Wear & Tear The handle grips and the Upper and Lower Black Bag Protectors may deteriorate with use. This is normal wear and tear and is not covered by warranty. Factory Warranty Service If you need repair or service, please follow this procedure:
1. Telephone or e-mail the Kangaroo factory. See page 6 of this manual for contact information. 2. If Technical Service instructs you to return your X-Series, or any part of it, pack in the original carton or a sturdy substitute container. Enclose a note with your name, address, daytime phone number or e-mail, and description of the problem you discussed with Technical Service.
