6.4. Shut Down
1.
Take a slightly slower out-lap.
2.
Switch the engine off as soon as you have reached the paddock.
3.
Let the engine cool down.
4.
To make sure the onboard-starter does not start the engine unintentionally, you should
disconnect the positive (+) terminal from the battery when you park your kart.
! The exhaust becomes very hot. Caution! It will cause severe burns!
! Before driving again, review the checklist to make sure that your kart is still in good
condition and fully operational.
It is normal to see the water temperature increase after stopping the engine, because the wa-
ter pump is not running any more, and the radiator is not cooled by any wind.
Lubricate the chain with chain lube immediately after driving. While still warm, the chain ab-
sorbs lube more readily and lasts longer. Make sure to lube the chain links as well as the
running surface of the chain.
The lifetime of a battery is greatly reduced when it is totally discharged. Charge the starter
battery regularly
– even if it is not empty.
6.5. Transportation
Fuel can sometimes escape from the carburettor or the fuel tank during transportation
– es-
pecially if the kart is transported vertically. Always empty the fuel tank and the float bowl of
the carburettor before transportation.
! When removing parts like the carburettor or the exhaust from the engine, you should
close all ports airtight.
