Arctic Cat 366 2010 Operator's Manual page 60

During the first 10 hours of operation,
always use less than ½ throttle. Varying
the engine RPM during the break-in
period allows the components to "load"
(aiding the engine/transmission com-
ponent mating process) and then
"unload" (allowing components to
cool). Although it is essential to place
some stress on the engine components
during break-in, care should be taken
not to overload the engine too often.
Do not pull a trailer during the break-in
period.
When the engine starts, allow it to
warm up properly. Idle the engine sev-
eral minutes until the engine has
reached normal operating temperature.
Do not idle the engine for excessively
long periods of time.
Brakes
Brake pads must be burnished to
achieve full braking effectiveness.
Braking distance will be extended until
brake pads are properly burnished. To
properly burnish the brakes, use fol-
lowing procedure:
58
CAUTION
TO PROPERLY BURNISH
BRAKES, USE FOLLOWING PRO-
CEDURE:
• Choose an area sufficiently large
to safely accelerate ATV to 30
mph and to brake to a stop.
• Accelerate to 30 mph; then com-
press brake lever to decelerate to
0-5 mph.
• Repeat procedure 5 times.
! WARNING
Do not attempt sudden stops or put
yourself into a situation where a
sudden stop will be required until
the brake pads are properly bur-
nished.
