Break-In
Careful break-in allows internal engine
components to "seat" properly, resulting in
maximum engine life and performance. Refer to
the propulsion unit and generator operator
manuals for manufacturers' break-in requirements.

monoxide detector(s). Refer to the carbon

maintenance may result in a loss of
control, resulting in serious injury or
death.
