OPERATION Break-In Period Engine Break-In The recommended break-in period is the time required to use the first full tank of pre-mixed fuel. Excessive heat build-up during the first three hours of operation will damage close-fitted engine parts. Do not operate at full throttle or high speeds for extended periods during the first three hours of use. Vary the throttle openings and vehicle speeds to reduce friction on all closefitting machined parts, allowing them to break in slowly without damage. The AXYS engine management system utilizes both a fuel injector break-in period and oil pump enrichment program. The duration of these break-in programs are independent of each other and are timed-out based on engine run time. Regardless of these automatic engine break-in and enrichment features, the following engine break-in procedures must be performed when the engine is new or overhauled. NOTE: During this period of increased oiling, sled performance will not be affected and you should ride normally.
