1. Safety

1.

Raket 95 engines including accessories, 

as supplied by Radne Motor, are only in-

tended to be assembled on a kart and for 

the purpose of driving the kart. Any other 

use is forbidden unless written approval 

has been received from Radne Motor. 

Radne Motor accepts no responsibility 

whatsoever for anything that may happen 

if a Raket 95 engine is used for any other 

purpose than that for which it is specifi

-

cally intended.

2.

A kart that is equipped with a Raket 95 

engine can attain speeds at which the 

driver is exposed to obvious danger to life 

and limb if the kart is handled in an irre-

sponsible manner. Radne Motor accepts 

no responsibility whatsoever for injuries 

to people or damage to property that may 

arise if a kart that is equipped with a Ra-

ket 95 engine, either directly or indirectly 

is the cause of an accident or damage as 

a result of carelessness or negligence on 

behalf of the driver.

3.

During normal use, some parts in a Raket 

95 engine become so warm that they can 

cause burns to people who come into 

contact with the warm parts. Examples of 

such parts are the silencer and cylinder. It 

is up to the driver to ensure that the kart 

is equipped with appropriate protection 

so that contact with warm and hot objects 

is avoided, and to act in an appropriate 

fashion so that such possible burn injuries 

do not occur. Radne Motor accepts no 

responsibility whatsoever for injuries that 

may occur as a result of a person coming 

into contact with the hot or warm parts of 

a Raket 95 engine.

4.

During the normal use of a Raket 95 

engine installed on a kart, there is a risk 

for personal injuries that may occur as 

a result of body parts or objects being 

trapped between, or rubbing against, the 

engine’s rotating parts. An example of this 

could be getting a finger stuck between 

the sprocket on the outbound axle and 

the chain that drives the rear axle. It is 

up to the driver to ensure that the kart 

is equipped with appropriate protection 

so that such incidences of contact are 

avoided, and to act in an appropriate 

fashion so that no injuries of this type 

occur. Radne Motor accepts no respon-

sibility whatsoever for injuries to people 

that may occur as a result of something 

becoming trapped between the rotating 

parts of a Raket 95 engine.

5.

A Raket 95 engine is propelled using a 

flammable fuel – alkylate petrol or 95 

octane petrol. Careless handling of the 

fuel can lead to fires that can cause injury 

to people or damage to property. Radne 

Motor accepts no responsibility whatso-

ever for accidents and injuries that may 

occur as a result of careless handling of 

fuel, for instance when filling the fuel tank, 

incorrect mounting of the fuel tank onto 

the kart, inappropriate construction of the 

fuel tank, a fuel tank made of inappropri-

ate materials or the existence or use of 

inappropriate materials in, or with the 

drawing of, a fuel line. 

6.

Raket 95 is equipped with an electric 

starter system consisting of a starter 

motor and a starter battery. The battery is 

of the NiMH type (Nickel-metal hydride). 

Please refer to the separate section in this 

manual regarding handling and care of 

the NiMH battery that is included with the 

delivery of a Raket 95 engine. Radne Mo-

tor accepts no responsibility whatsoever 

for accidents or injuries that may occur to 

people or property if any battery is used 

other than that which is supplied with the 

original delivery or as an original spare 

part battery.

7.

The driver is responsible for the mount-

ing of the battery, battery box and cables 

between the battery box and the starter 

motor, in accordance with the instructions 

provided in this manual. Radne Motor 

accepts no responsibility whatsoever for 

accidents and 

injuries that 

may occur 

as a result 

of incorrect 

mounting of 

the bat-

tery, battery 

box and/or 

the cables 

between the 

battery and 

the starter 

motor.

8.

The charging 

and storage 

of the NiMH 

battery should occur in accordance with 

the instructions provided in this manual. 

Radne Motor accepts no responsibility 

whatsoever for injuries to people or dam-

age to property that may occur as a result 

of incorrect handling, storage or charging 

of the Raket 95 NiMH battery.
