A factory new machine should not be
run at high revs (full throttle off load) for
the first three tank fillings. This avoids
unnecessary high loads during the
break-in period.
As all moving parts have to bed in
during the break-in period, the
frictional resistances in the engine
are greater during this period.
The engine develops its maximum
power after about 5 to 15 tank fillings.
'XULQJ RSHUDWLRQ
After a long period of full-throttle
operation, allow engine to run for a while
at idle speed so that the heat in the
engine can be dissipated by flow of
cooling air. This protects engine-
mounted components (ignition,
carburetor) from thermal overload.
