How do i open the little golf trolleys - i forgot

Post by karchun »

Its been 4 weeks since i've been taught how to open those buggars and tomorrow i'll start using them!!! Could anyone give me some tips on opening - all i've remembered is to lean on the stop "thingy" (the end part) whilst pushing down on something??

When you want to act all superfly, you can go fo the mid-air assemble, which involves holding the carry handle in one hand and gripping the pulling handle with the other, then executing a swift opening and turning manoeuvre to get the trolley folded out and upright. If you're not keen on losing fingers, however, you can place the trolley on the ground (with the shiny/scratched 'brake' plate facing upwards) and lift the pulling handle upwards to assemble.

the trolleys are a disaster waiting to happen

no brakes and they seem to slide by themselves if there on a slight hill
which i have noticed can mean going right onto a busy road which will cause a serious accident
a chunk of cheap metal grinding the floor is not good enough !
