Break~In Period; Break-In, 10 Hour-Inspection, Inspection Check List - BOMBARDIER Alpine 1983 Operator's Manual

BREAK-IN PERIOD
With Bombardier-Rotax snowmobile
engines, a break-in period is required
before running the vehicle at full throttle.
Engine manufacturer recommendation is
10
to
15
operating hours. During this
period, a richer mixture is needed (i.e.
40
parts of gas for
1
part of Bombardier
snowmobile injection oil). Maximum
throttle should not exceed
3/4
1
however,
brief full acceleration and speed varia-
tions contribute to a good break-in. Con-
tinued wide open throttle accelerations,
prolonged cruising speeds, and lugging
are detrimental during the break-in
period.
O
NOTE:
A
new drive belt requires
a break-in period of
15-25
km (10-
15
miles).
. . , CAUTION: Remove and clean
. . spark plugs after engine break-in.
10-HOUR INSPECTION
As with any precision piece of mechan-
ical equipment, we suggest that after
the first 10 hours of operation or 30
days after the purchase, whichever
comes first that your vehicle be check-
ed by your dealer. This inspection will
give you the opportunity to discuss the
unanswered questions you may have
encountered during the first hours of
operation. Remember that it is easier
to remedy at this time than to allow the
snowmobile to operate until a possible
failure occurs.
The 10 hours inspection is at the ex-
pense of the vehicle owner.
