    Using the Controller

    Forward / Speed up

    Each press of the Up button raises the speed by one of ten levels.

    Slow down

    Each press of the Down button lowers the speed by one level.

    Stop / Brake

    Press Stop to bring the cart to a halt immediately at any speed.

    Reverse

    From a complete stop, hold the Down button to reverse. Release to stop.

    Fusion controller buttons: stop/brake, keypad lock indicator, forward/speed up (10 speed), reverse/slow down, signal/pairing button
    IMPORTANT Reverse only from a standstill — never switch to reverse while the cart is moving forward.

    CHARGING

    Charging

    Battery

    Charge at least 5 hours before first use. A full charge takes about 4 hours and lasts up to 27 holes. Recharge after about every 18 holes, and use only the included charger.

    Controller

    About 1 hour or less using the supplied USB-A to Type-C cable. We recommend recharging it after every round.

    Fusion power unit: charging port, operation indicator, power level indicators, power button, 5V USB Type-C output

    Good to know: the power unit has a 5V USB-C output for emergencies. If the controller runs low, use the included USB-C to USB-C connector to top it up from the battery in a pinch — it can also charge a phone slowly. It does not charge the battery itself.

    IMPORTANT Use only the provided charger. Third-party chargers can be a fire hazard — keep flammable material away while charging and unplug if the charger becomes excessively hot.

    FEATURES

    Features & Good to Know

    Downhill Speed Control

    Going downhill the cart may pick up a little speed, but it stays capped at the speed level you set, so it never runs away from you.

    Easy Freewheel Mode

    Turn off the battery or hold the STOP button to switch into freewheel mode and use Fusion as a regular manual push cart.

    Anti-Tip Bars

    Fusion does not use anti-tip bars — as a power-assist cart, just keep a hand on the handle to steer, which keeps it stable on slopes.

    Protective Bag Cradle

    The bag support has silicone pads that protect both your bag and the cart from scratches.

    AC/DC Smart Charger

    The smart charger prevents overcharging, so you can leave it charging without worry.

    Magnetic Ball Marker

    A magnetic spot on the console that holds your ball marker, so it's easy to grab when you reach the green.

    Keypad Lock

    A small button underneath the controller locks the keypad to stop accidental presses while you hold it — it is a key lock, not an anti-theft lock.

    Controller Range

    The controller works from about 5 yards away. We don't recommend using it as an everyday remote — Fusion is designed as a power-assist cart that you steer by hand.

    ACCESSORIES

    Accessories & Onboard Features

    Bag Riser

    For smaller or stand bags — drop it in once to close the gap so the bag sits securely. Leave it in place; you don't need to remove it before folding. Standard cart bags don't need it.

    Umbrella Holder

    Non-adjustable mount on the frame to keep you covered through the round.

    Adjustable Handle

    Set the handle to a comfortable height, then tighten the knob.

    Console Storage

    Onboard storage with a built-in scorecard holder and pencil holder.

    Built-in Cupholder

    Built-in cupholder integrated into the console — keeps your drink within reach.

    Magnetic Ball Marker Pad

    The magnetic landing pad is for the ball marker only.

    Cart won't power onBattery not seated or not chargedRemove and re-insert the battery firmly until it clicks. Make sure it's fully charged.

    Cart rolls back slightly on a slopeAutomatic parking brake holding positionThis is normal — the motor counters the downhill force. Park perpendicular to the slope to save battery.

    Cart pulls to one side, drives in a circle, or one wheel won't turnMotor or cable fault on one wheelContact us at contact@alphardgolf.com. We'll guide you through a quick wire-swap check — swapping the two motor cables shows whether the fault is in the cable or the wheel motor. Watch the wire-swap test below to pinpoint the cause.

    Wheel going in a circle or seizing up? This wire-swap test pinpoints whether the problem is the wheel motor or the control box. It involves opening the control box — if you'd rather not, email contact@alphardgolf.com and we'll help.

    SAFETY

    Safety & Maintenance

    General safety

    Don't overload the cart. Keep hands and fingers away from folding joints and moving parts. No passengers or unusually heavy items. Inspect the wheels, locks, and frame before each use.

    Terrain & weather

    Avoid steep slopes; keep both hands on the handle when climbing to prevent tip-over. Keep electronics dry and avoid heavy rain. Store in a cool, dry place. Stop use immediately if you notice abnormal noise or damage.

    FAQ

    Common Questions

    How long should I charge the battery before the first round?
    At least 5 hours before first use. After that, a full charge takes about 4 hours.
    How far does it go on a charge?
    Up to 27 holes on a full charge.
    What is the Bag Riser for?
    Smaller and stand bags — it closes the gap at the bottom so the bag sits securely. Standard cart bags don't need it.
    Do I need to remove the battery before folding?
    Yes. Always slide the battery out first — folding with it attached can scratch the battery base.
    Can I use the controller as a full remote?
    The controller detaches, but Fusion is a power-assist cart — you steer by hand. The controller isn't intended as a walk-away remote.
