Cart Brings Power And Tools
 |
“I wanted to be able to use the generator for emergency power when necessary,” says Haney. “With the cart, I can roll the generator into place and strap it down, and move it more easily when I want power away from the buildings.”
Haney stripped the E-Z Go electric golf cart down to its frame and axles. He removed the front running gear and fabricated a hitch in its place. He used 3/4-in. scrap plywood he had on hand to fashion a deck. Steel and other parts also came from a scrap pile.
“I left the steering assembly and front wheels on at first,” recalls Haney. “I quickly found it difficult to back up. It would jackknife rapidly.”
Haney says the extra deck space leaves lots of room for tools like his electric chain saw and pole saw. With the now-portable generator, he gets added use of these corded power tools.
