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.
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 dur-
ing the break-in period.
