BREAK-IN PERIOD
BREAK-IN PERIOD
A break-in period is necessary in order to allow the components
of the system to match themselves to each others.
During the break-in period (4 hours or 80 kilometers), follow
these recommendations :
• Avoid running under dry and clean conditions. (For
example: asphalts, hay or straw field, etc).
• Start sharp turns at very low speed: (10 km/h maximum
real speed).
A
GOOD
break-in period must be done in a lubricated
environment such as water, mud, snow, soft soil, sand, dust,
etc.
A
BAD
break-in period can generate smoke, odors of burned
rubber as well as plastic deposits on the sprocket and/or the
frame.
