Running-In - Beta RR 250 Owner's Manual

RUNNING-IN

The running-in period lasts approximately 15 hours, during which it is advisable to:
1 During the fi rst 3 hours of operation the engine should only be used to ap-
proximately 70 percent of its power.
2 In the subsequent 2 hours of running, the engine can be exploited up to 90%
of its power.
3 Use the vehicle after properly warming up the engine.
4 Avoid travelling at constant speed (changing the speed causes the different
components to bed in evenly and more quickly).
This procedure should be followed each time piston, piston rings, cylinder, crankshaft
or crankshaft bearings are replaced.
WARNING:
Replace the transmission oil after the fi rst 3 hours or after 15 l. of mixture.
• Always use high-octane unleaded gasoline and specifi c synthetic oil (mixture at
1.6%).
• After using the vehicle on rough ground for the fi rst time, carefully check the
tightening of all nuts and bolts.
