Check the bolts and nuts for rust and replace them to prevent them from breaking which can cause
injuries.
3.2.2 Wheels/tires
Regularly check the rims and tires for any damage (for example cuts, cracks and bulges). Attention:
damaged rims and tires can lead to accidents! The tires must not come into contact with oil, grease or
fuel.
The correct tire pressure is shown on the outside of the tire. If the tires are at the correct pressure the
product will be light and easy to handle. If the pressure is too low, the tires will leak quicker and will
suffer excessive wear and tear. If the tire pressure is too high, the tire can for example come loose
from the rim, resulting in dangerous situations. Attention: remember that in bright sunlight and at
high temperatures the tire pressure increases! The tires must not come into contact with oil, grease or
fuel. Make sure that the valve caps are always fitted on the valves.
3.2.3 Steering
The steering equipment must be checked every month for the following:
• Damage, rust, wear and tear.
• All the nuts and bolts must be tightened.
3.2.4 Chain
The go-kart has a driving mechanism with two chains.
Make sure that the chains are sufficiently oiled so that they can travel freely .
If a chain is too tightly tensioned, the product will be more difficult to pedal and there is a big chance
that wear and tear of the chain and sprocket, among other things, will occur faster. If a chain is not
tight enough, the chain can easily come off the sprocket, or there is a chance of damage to the chain
housing.
When both chains must be tensioned, always begin with the rear/short chain.
To tension the rear chain:
• Remove the protective hood.
• Loosen the nuts of the hub.
• Tension the chain by moving the hub forwards.
• Make sure that the hub remains exactly parallel to the rear axle.
• Tighten the hub nuts again.
• The chain has the correct tension if the middle can be pushed 6 millimeters downwards.
