Noisy trolley

[Par Keeper]

I have a Powakaddy FW5 trolley that is getting noisier, does anyone have advice on how to try and reduce the noise ?

Can you be more specific about where the noise is coming from?

Sounds like it is coming from near the battery ?

I have FW5 that was making a grinding noise. Turned out dirt and grit had gotten in the drive shafts.

Took the cover off, cleaned it out and greased the axles and wheel hubs.

Thanks very much Greig I’ll give that a go

I know you said near the battery, but a common problem is the bearings failing in the front wheel, it’s an easy fix, replacements available online.
