Engine Break-In
There is never a more important period in the
life of your vehicle than the period between 0
and 25 hours. For this reason, we ask that
you carefully read the following material.
Because the engine is brand new, you must
not put an excessive load on it for the first
several hours of running.
During the first 25 hours, the various parts in
the engine wear and polish themselves to the
correct operating clearances. During this
period, prolonged full throttle operation or
any condition which might result in excessive
engine heating must be avoided. However,
Operation 6-10
momentary (2-3 seconds maximum) full
throttle operation under load does not harm
the engine.
Each full throttle acceleration sequence
should be followed with a substantial rest
period for the engine by cruising at lower
engine speed so the engine can rid itself of
the temporary build up of heat. If any
abnormality is noticed during this period,
consult a service center.
0-10 Hours:
Avoid continuous operation above half
throttle. Allow a cooling off period of five to
ten minutes after every hour of operation.
Vary the speed of the vehicle from time to
time. Do not operate it at one set throttle
position.
