BREAK-IN PERIOD
With Bombardier-Rotax snowmobile
engines, a break-in period is required
before running the vehicle at full throt-
tle. Engine's manufacturer recommen-
dation is 10to 15operating hours. Dur-
ing this period, a richer mixture is
needed (i.e, 40 parts of gas for 1part of
50/1 Bombardier oil). Maximum throt-
tle should not exceed
3/4,
however,
brief full acceleration and speed varia-
tions contribute to a good break-in.
Continued wide open throttle accelera-
tions, prolonged cruising
spe~ds,
and
lugging are detrimental dunng the
break-in period.
1G-Hour Inspection
As with any precision piece of mechan-
ical equipement, we suggest,that alter
the first 10 hours of operation or 30
days after the purchase, whichever
comes first, that your vehicle be check-
ed by your dealer. This inspection will
give you the opportunity to discuss the
unanswered questions you mat have
encountered during the first hours of
operation. Remember that it is easier
to remedy at this time than
~o
allow ,the
snowmobile to operate until a possible
failure occurs.
The 10 hours inspection is at the ex-
pense of the vehicle owner.
