BREAK-IN (RUNNING-IN)
The first 1 month is the most important in the life of your vehicle. Proper
operation during this break-in period will help ensure maximum life and
performance from your new vehicle. The following guidelines explain
proper break in procedures.
MAXIMUM THROTTLE OPENING RECOMMENDATION
During the first 10 hours of vehicle operation, the maximum throttle
opening you should use is 1/2 throttle.
VARY THE ENGINE SPEED
The engine speed should varied during the break-in period. This allows
the parts to be “loaded”(aiding the mating process) and then “unloaded”
(allowing parts to cool). Although it is essential that some stress be placed
on the engine components during break-in, you must be careful not to
excessively load the engine.
AVOID CONSTANT LOW SPEED
Operating the engine at constant low speed (light load) can cause parts to
glaze and not seat properly. Allow the engine to accelerate freely through
the gears, without exceeding the maximum recommended throttle
opening.
OBSERVE YOUR INITIAL AND MOST CRITICAL SERVICE
The initial service (break-in maintenance) is the most important service
your vehicle will receive. During break in operation, all of the engine com-
ponents will have mated together and seated. Maintenance required as part
of the initial service includes correction of all adjustments, tightening of all
fasteners and replacement of dirty oil.
Timely performance of this service will ensure optimum service life and
performance from your ATV.
