3.2.1 Frame
The frame is powder-coated or black zinc plated. To prevent rust forming it's important to not keep the
pedal go-kart outside for a long time during rain and clean the frame regularly. If you want to conserve
the frame with grease, only use acid free substances. You can treat damaged areas with paint.
Check the bolts and nuts for rust and replace them to prevent them from breaking which can cause
injuries.
