I guess these carts are rarer then I thought. Nobody has anything to add?

[mikeasis]

how old are these? I didn't realize Columbia had carts till they bought out Harley....

I think they started production around 1961.

I have a '67 Pargo and I also have a service / parts manual for it. However, my manual is 100 miles away in paper version. It's going to take me a while to be able get to it, scan it and upload it.

Here is a wiring diagram though.

Also, note that the Pargo's speed control is nothing more than lever that is connected to a three position switch and the accelerator pedal. When you press the accelerator it rotates a 3 speed switch. EZGos from this time period had to exact same switch. I restored one of these EZGos and found that the switch was bad and replacements are not made.

This was my fix:

If that switch ever goes bad on a Pargo this work around will work on it.

Thanks Lochlin

That would be a great help. I have a 68 and really need one.

Do you remember if it had anything about the steering? Mine as allot of play in the steering box and Im trying to figure out if there is a way to adjust it.

Found these on eBay. Will also add a Pargo service catalog in a few days when it arrives.

1st is for a 1967 Pargo Columbia Industrial Truck
2nd/3rd is 1969 Pargo Columbia Industrial Truck Brochure

Still looking for repair/service manual for a 60's 4 wheel cart.

Ive tried contacting them twice asking about the manuals and never got a reply. It just makes me uneasy when a company doesn't take the time to have even basic customer support. That's one of the reasons why I started this thread. I figured someone would have the info and post it.
