Abstract
This is an experimentalapproach to develop a hydraulic tilting table which can be used to lift the go-kart to a certain angle to check for any anomalies in the design and previous iterations of the tilting table made use of a pivot system where the tilt was achieved through a belt attached to one end and when the belt was pulled, the tilting table tilts the go-kart placed on its platform to a desirable elevation. The addition of a hydraulic system would eliminate any mechanical work input by humans and the tilting motion of the table can easily have achieved through the press of the buttons and also it is quite comfortable to stop the tilt at any angle in the range of the tilt and hydraulic system would not collapse as fluid is incompressible. This proves to be a major advantage compared to the previous design as some sort of stopping mechanism had to be fashioned in the design to stop the tilt at a desired angle.
