RUNNING.IN
During initial running-in newly machined
surfaces will be in contact with each other
and these surfaces will wear in quicklv.
Running-in maintenance at 1,000km (6d0
miles) is designed to compensate for this
initial minor wear. Timely performance of
the running-in maintenance will ensure
optimum service life and performance
from the engine.

1. Never labour the engine with full
throttle at low engine speeds. This rule
is applicable not only during running-in

during the first 1,000 km ( 600 miles)
must not exceed 5,000 min-l (rpm).
3. Increase the maximum continuous
engine speed by 2,000 mini (rpm)
