15- CLEANING THE CHASSIS
•
The cleaning of the chassis and its components is to be done with a special cleaning product
(refer to the ITAKA catalogue). Do not use the product on brake pads and brake calipers.
Avoid products which are not recommended in the ITAKA catalogue. They may be too
aggressive and damage painted and coated areas, plastic parts as well as gaskets.
1.
Protect the break calipers and the brake disk with a dry piece of cloth.
2.
Spray the whole kart with the cleaning product, and let it act for 30 seconds.
3.
Wipe the frame and the components with a dry cloth.
NOTE:
-
Clean your kart on a regular basis: it is a good way to check it and detect
damages, if any.
9
Spray cleaning product on brake pads or brake caliper may reduce the braking ability
partially or totally, and can lead to a serious accident.
9
If any doubt, drive carefully the first laps, and test the brakes until the braking
ability becomes normal.
