    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Standard provides designers, manufacturers, proprietors and operating staff with requirements and guidance specific to the design, construction, operation and maintenance of hire go-karts and facilities that will protect the health and safety of both operating staff and patrons of these devices.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Standard sets out requirements and guidance for the design, construction, operation, inspection, testing and maintenance of hire go-karts, tracks and facilities. This includes arrive and drive patrons and corporate or other pre-booked events, e.g. simulated race events.This Standard is not applicable to—(a) events where track time is hired and privately owned karts are used;(b) fun karts or race kart activities; or(c) dirt or clay tracks.This Standard is only written to apply to commercially operated facilities where hire karting for a fee is conducted.This Standard is to be applied for any replacement or new go-karts and is not intended to be applied retrospectively.This Standard considers karts that run at no more than 70 km/h.NOTES: 1 Some parts of this Standard may be useful for karts that run at more than 70 km/h. However, the safety of the design of the kart and track should be assessed in light of the higher speed.2 This Standard is intended to be used in conjunction with AS 3533.1 and AS 3533.2, which provide requirements and recommendations on matters common to all amusement rides and devices. Specific requirements in this Standard take precedence over corresponding requirements in AS 3533.1 and AS 3533.2. If the requirements of any part of this Standard conflict with any National, State or Territory regulations, the appropriate statutory regulations apply.
