BREAK IN
Taking care to properly break in your new engine will pay off in
the long run. In our years of field testing, we have proven that
an Indmar engine, when properly broken in according to our
simple procedures, will last longer, run better and have fewer
repairs over its lifetime.
Your new engine does not require an elaborate break-in
procedure. Just follow these simple instructions and you are
off to a great start.
The three (3) most important aspects of new engine break-in
are:
Avoid running engine at high speeds.
Do not carry a heavy load (passengers, gear, etc.).
Vary your boat speed during break-in, do not run at the same
RPM for a long period of time.
BREAK-IN STEPS
For the first hour, do not exceed 2,000 RPM.
For the second hour, do not exceed 3,000 RPM.
For the next five hours, do not exceed 4,000 RPM.
BREAK-IN TIPS
Avoid fast accelerations and do not carry (or pull) a heavy
load during this period.
Always let engine warm up gradually before acceleration.
Check oil frequently. During the first 50 to 100 hours, an
engine can use more oil than usual. Maintain oil at a proper
level at all times (do not overfill).
Monitor transmission fluid levels.
Report abnormal noises or vibrations to your dealer.
Keep an eye out for loose mountings, fittings, nuts, bolts,
and clamps.

During the BREAK-IN process, engine temperature should be
carefully monitored and speed should be reduced if overheating
is evident.
ALSO, PLEASE REFER TO ENGINE OWNER’S
MANUAL FOR BREAK-IN INFORMATION.
NOTICE: PLEASE REFER TO ENGINE OWNER’S MANUAL for
maximum RPM and engine break-in procedure.
After the first 10 to 20 hours of operation, take your boat to
the dealer for its first oil and filter change, as well as an engine
checkup. Remember to keep a sharp eye on all gauges and
warning lights during these first hours of operation. Report
anything unusual to your dealer.
After the break-in procedure is over, your boat may be operated
continuously at any speed.
Do not exceed maximum RPM recommended for your
engine. Exceeding the maximum RPM may result in damage
to the engine.
Before starting your engine you must open the engine box
and check engine compartment and bilge for gasoline and
oil vapors.
