Using this steering wheel is easy. Just install it on your kart according to the standard installation process. When you're driving, hold the high - grip hand grips firmly for better control. Remember, the gauge is sold separately, so you need to install it in the integrated mount if you have one. Make sure to choose a compatible gauge like Mychron 5 or Mychron 6. As for maintenance, keep it clean by wiping it with a soft cloth regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the high - grip material and the carbon - look top. Also, store it in a dry place when not in use to prevent any rust or damage. If you notice any wear and tear on the hand grips or the mount, it's time to replace them to ensure safe and efficient driving.
