Overview of the Shadow Caddy
The Shadow Caddy is an intelligent robot that
carries your golf clubs, following faithfully
behind you, allowing you to focus on your
game.
It achieves this by using its patented system
of following a signal emitted by a transmitter
carried by the golfer.
The Shadow Caddy has an integrated Object
Detection System so that when it detects a
person, animal or other object in its path the
system is designed to stop, providing power to
the motors and engaging the brakes to avoid a
collision. For extra protection and to minimize
the potential for harm in the event of a collision,
the Shadow Caddy apparatus is speed limited,
to minimize the kinetic energy of the device, to
a speed less than 8.0 (eight) kilometers per hour.
The Shadow Caddy is to be exclusively used for
the transportation of golf clubs weighing less
than 30 (thirty) kilograms. The Shadow Caddy is
not designed for the transportation of humans,
especially children, animals, heavy goods,
liquids (except for drinks in the drinks holder), or
dangerous goods of any kinds. Transportation
of such items on the Shadow Caddy is strictly
prohibited. The device is to be operated
outdoors away from ames or ammable liquids
or gases.
The Shadow Caddy follows a Radio Frequency
(RF) signal transmitted by the Radio
Transmission Unit (RTU). The Shadow Caddy is
susceptible to strong external interference. In
the presence of external interference the Caddy
may stop following. If this occurs please operate
the Shadow Caddy in a location away from the
source of interference.
The user must at all times operate the device
in a safe manner and adhere to all warnings
described in this manual.

The Shadow Caddy has sophisticated safety
features such as a Object Detection System and
the ability to stop if it loses signal from the RTU
or if the RTU is tilted from the vertical (as would
be the case if the operator trips and falls).
Although this and other safety features are built
into the unit, care must always be taken when
operating any robotic device and the Shadow
Caddy is no exception.
Please note the following warnings:

The Caddy functions by detecting a radio13.
frequency signal transmitted from the Radio
Transmission Unit (RTU). In the presence
of high levels of interference or jamming
the Caddy may stop or may not operate
correctly. If this occurs the Caddy will
disengage the FOLLOW ME and stop. If the
interference continues, manually move the
Caddy away from ITS source by using the
REVERSE button and then re-engage the
FOLLOW ME mode.
Never operate the Caddy with the RTU in14.

keep the transmitter at waist level centred on
your back.
Do not operate the Shadow Caddy if the15.
Object Detection System is faulty or if the
Object Detection sensors are obstructed,
dirty or badly scratched.
If the Object Detection System housing
is obstructed, dirty or if the clear
polycarbonate housing is clouded or has
a signicant lm of moisture, discontinue
use of the Caddy until the housing is clean
and transparent again. If the housing is
damaged call the Shadow Caddy service
department.
In the presence of highly reective radio16.

the reected signal rather than the signal
transmitted by the RTU. Avoid the operation
of the Caddy near highly reective surfaces
