battery of 12 V and 6,5 Ah the engine can be started approximately one hundred times and
operated over a period of approximately five hours. With the battery voltage decreasing to
approximately 11 V the point will be reached when the battery voltage is too low to generate a
spark for ignition.

after any operation of the kart.
It is recommended to always carry a charged spare battery. The installed battery
should be replaced by a fully charged battery before it is completely exhausted.
If the spark plug will be removed, to check if the battery still generates a spark,
consider the following: with the spark plug removed it is easier for the electric starter
to crank the engine, which reduces current absorption of the electric starter resulting
in battery voltage adequate to generate a spark. But if the spark plug is fitted again it
may happen that the engine won't start.
To charge a battery, the battery charging unit specified by Rotax and available as an
