Engine break-in
There is never a more important
period in the life of your engine than
the period between 0 and 1000 km
(600 mi). For this reason, you should
read the following material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1000 km (600 mi). The various parts in
the engine wear and polish themsel-
ves to the correct operating clearan-
ces. During this period, prolonged
full-throttle operation or any condition
that might result in engine overhea-
ting must be avoided.
EAU16951

●Avoid prolonged operation above
1/3 throttle.
●After every hour of operation,
stop the engine, and then let it
cool for five to ten minutes.
●Vary the engine speed from time
to time. Do not operate the engi-
ne at one set throttle position.150–500 km (90–300 mi)
●Avoid prolonged operation above
1/2 throttle.
●Rev the engine freely through the
gears, but do not use full throttle
at any time.
500–1000 km (300–600 mi)
●Avoid prolonged operation above
3/4 throttle. NOTICE: After 1000
km (600 mi) of operation, the
engine oil must be changed
and the oil strainer cleaned.

• EXTERNAL: Flush with plenty
of water.
• INTERNAL: Drink large quan-
tities of water or milk and
immediately call a physician.
• EYES: Flush with water for 15
minutes and seek prompt
medical attention.
●Batteries produce explosive
hydrogen gas. Therefore, keep
sparks, flames, cigarettes, etc.,
away from the battery and pro-
vide sufficient ventilation when
charging it in an enclosed spa-
ce.
●KEEP THIS AND ALL BATTE-
RIES OUT OF THE REACH OF

at least once a month and fully
charge the battery whenever
necessary.
3. Fully charge the battery before
installation.4. After installation, make sure that
the battery leads are properly
connected to the battery termi-
nals and that the breather hose is
properly routed, in good condi-
tion, and not obstructed. NOTI-
CE: If the breather hose is posi-
tioned in such a way that the
frame is exposed to electrolyte
or gas expelled from the bat-
tery, the frame could suffer
structural and external dama-
ges.
