Checking safety elements
The panelling/bodywork and the surround protection are crucial safety devices, protecting both the kart and the
driver. Ensure that these parts are undamaged and work properly.
WARNING
Risk of injury from defective panelling/bodywork
Defective panelling/bodywork does not properly protect the driver against contact with
moving or hot kart components. When driving the kart, there is a risk of serious injury,
especially in the event of an accident.
a)
Inspect the panelling/bodywork and replace defective components without delay.
