Maintenance

To be able to ride around in safety and enjoy your BERG pedal go-kart for many years,
a little care and maintenance is required. This section talks about how often
maintenance needs to be carried out. There is then a short description of how the
maintenance work should be done.

Maintenance works

5.1 Frame
The frame is powder-coated. This means it has a hard coat of paint. To prevent rust
from forming, it is important to clean the frame regularly. If you want to preserve the
frame with grease, use acid-free products only. You can touch up small areas of
damage with paint. Your dealer will have the correct paint to use.
5.2 Wheels / Tyres
The wheels are fitted with ball bearings. Check the wheel rims and tyres regularly for
damage (nicks, cuts, cracks and bulges). NB: damaged rims and tyres may lead to
accidents! Tyre pressure is a minimum of 1 bar/14 psi and a maximum of 1.5 bar/22psi
(remember that pressure increases with high temperatures). Your pedal go-kart will run
smoothly and freely when the tyres are at the correct pressure. When the tyre pressure is
too low, the tyres puncture more easily and there will be excessive wear.
