IS YOUR VEHICLE READY TO DRIVE?
Before each drive, it is important to inspect your Go-Kart and make sure any
problems you find are corrected. A pre-drive inspection is a must, not only for
safety, but because having a breakdown, or even a flat tire, can be a major
inconvenience.
If your Go-Kart has overturned or has been involved in a collision, do not
drive it until your dealer has inspected your Go-Kart, There may be damages or
other problems you cannot see.
