OPERATION Vehicle Break-in Period Engine and Drivetrain Break-in 1. Fill the fuel tank with gasoline. See page 34. Always exercise extreme caution whenever handling gasoline. 2. Check the oil level. See page 77. Add the recommended oil as needed to maintain the oil level in the safe operating range. 3. Complete the New Operator Driving Procedures outlined on pages 56-57. 4. Avoid aggressive use of the brakes. See Brake System Break-in on page 51. 5. Vary throttle positions. Do not operate at sustained idle. 6. Perform regular checks on fluid levels, controls and areas outlined on the daily pre-ride inspection checklist. See page 52. 7. Pull only light loads. 8. During the break-in period, change both the oil and the filter at 25 hours or one month. 9. Check fluid levels of transmission and all gearcases after the first 25 hours of operation and every 100 hours thereafter. Brake System Break-in Apply only moderate braking force for the first 50 stops. Aggressive or overly forceful braking when the brake system is new could damage brake pads and rotors. PVT Break-in (Clutches/Belt) A proper break-in of the clutches and drive belt will ensure a longer life and better performance. Break in the clutches and belt by operating at slower speeds during the break-in period as recommended. Pull only light loads. Avoid aggressive acceleration and high speed operation during the break-in period. If a belt fails, always clean any debris from the duct and from the clutch and engine compartments when replacing the belt. 51
