3.2 Maintenance activities
3.2.1 Frame
• The frame is powder-coated or black zinc plated. To prevent rust forming it is important to not
keep the pedal go-kart outside for a long time during rain and clean the frame regularly. If you
want to conserve the frame with grease, only use acid free substances. You can treat damaged
areas with paint.
• 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.
