Golf Cart Maintenance

1. Do not store the battery at a loss of power. The state of power loss refers to the battery of electric golf carts, electric sightseeing cars, and electric dining cars that are not charged in time after use. They are prone to sulfation and lead sulfate crystals are attached to the plates and block the ion channels. Resulting in insufficient charging and reduced battery capacity. The longer the battery is idle for a long time, the more serious the battery damage will be. When the battery is not in use, it should be charged once a month, which can extend the service life of the battery.
2. Regular inspection is required. During use, if the driving range of the electric golf cart suddenly drops by more than ten kilometers in a short period of time, it is likely that at least one battery in the battery pack has broken cells, softened plates, or Short circuit phenomena such as the active material of the plate falling off. At this time, you should promptly go to a professional battery repair agency for inspection, repair or assembly.
3. Do not discharge with high current and try to avoid instantaneous high current discharge. High current discharge can easily cause lead sulfate to crystallize, thereby damaging the physical properties of the battery plates.
4. Master the charging time. Generally, the battery is charged at night, and the average charging time is about 8 hours. If it is shallowly discharged (the mileage after charging is very short), the golf cart battery will be fully charged very quickly. If it continues to be charged, overcharging will occur, causing the battery to lose water, generate heat, and reduce the battery life. Therefore, it is best to charge the battery once when the discharge depth is 60%-70%. In actual use, it can be converted into riding mileage. Necessary charging should be carried out according to the actual situation to avoid harmful charging.
5. Prevent exposure to high temperatures. Golf carts cannot be exposed to the sun. An environment with too high temperature will increase the internal pressure of the battery and force the battery pressure limiting valve to open automatically. The direct consequence is to increase the water loss of the battery. Excessive water loss in golf cart batteries will inevitably lead to a decrease in battery activity and accelerate the softening of the plates. During charging, the case may heat up, bulge, deform, and other fatal injuries.
