OPERATION

Engine Break-In

No single action on your part is as important to long, trouble-free

machine life as proper break-in of a new or rebuilt engine. Premix the

first tank of gasoline with one pint of Polaris injection oil for each five

gallons of fuel. This, in addition to the lubrication supplied by the injec-

tion system, will assure proper engine break-in.

NOTICE: 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 machine speeds to reduce friction on all

close-fitting machined parts, allowing them to break in slowly without

damage.
Use of any lubricants other than those recommended by Polaris may

cause serious engine damage. We recommend the use of Polaris

lubricants for your vehicle.
Drive with extra caution during the break-in period. Perform regular

checks on fluid levels, lines, and all other important areas of the

machine.
