PVT BREAK-IN (CLUTCHES / BELT)
A proper break-in of the clutches and drive belt will ensure a longer life and
better performance. If a belt fails, always clean any debris from the duct and
from the engine compartment.
STANDARD BREAK-IN
Drive at slower speeds for the first 50 miles (80 km) of operation. Carry only light
loads. Avoid aggressive acceleration, high-speed operation and prolonged
operation at a specific RPM during this period.
SAND / DUNE BREAK-IN
Drive in low gear for the first 5 miles (8 km) of operation. Avoid prolonged low
speed operation at high throttle. Avoid aggressive acceleration, high-speed
operation and prolonged operation at a specific RPM during this period.
BELT LIFE
To extend belt life, use low gear in the following conditions:
• When hauling or towing heavy cargo
• When consistently operating at speeds less than 35 MPH (56 km/h) in hard-
pulling terrain, such as mud, rocks or sand/dune environments.
