Polaris 2016 ATV Sportsman 850 - Manual (Page 58)

OPERATION
Failure to operate the ATV properly can result in a collision, loss of control,
accident or overturn, which may result in serious injury or death. Read and
understand all safety warnings outlined in the safety section of this owner’s
manual.
Break-In Period
The break-in period for your new POLARIS ATV is the first 20 hours of
operation. No single action on your part is as important as following the
procedures for a proper break-in. Careful treatment of a new engine and
drive components will result in more efficient performance and longer
life for these components.
NOTICE: Excessive heat build-up during the first three hours of operation will
damage close-fitted engine parts and drive components. Do not
operate at full throttle or high speeds during the first three hours of
use.
