ENGINE BREAK-IN

There is never a more important period in the
life of your machine than the period between
zero and 20 hours.
For this reason, we ask that you carefully
read the following material. Because the
engine is brand new, you must not put an
excessive load on it for the first 20 hours, the
various parts in the engine wear and polish
themselves to the correct operating
clearances.
During this period, prolonged full throttle
operation or any condition which might result
in excessive engine heating must be avoided.
However, momentary (2~3 seconds
maximum) full throttle operation under load
does not harm the engine.
Each full throttle acceleration sequence
should be followed with a substantial rest
period for the engine by cruising at lower
－
r/min so the engine can rid itself of the
temporary build up of heat.
If any abnormality is noticed during this
period, consult a KYMCO dealer.
