OPERATION Break-In Period Engine Break-In Excessive heat build-up during the first three hours of operation will damage close-fitted engine parts. Do not operate at full throttle or high speeds for extended periods during the first three hours of use. Vary the throttle openings and vehicle speeds to reduce friction on all closefitting machined parts, allowing them to break in slowly without damage. NOTICE: Use of any lubricants other than those recommended by POLARIS may cause serious engine damage. We recommend the use of POLARIS lubricants for your vehicle. Drive with extra caution during the break-in period. Perform regular checks on fluid levels, lines, and all other important areas of the snowmobile. Drive Belt Break-In The break-in period for a new drive belt is 30 miles (48 km). During this time, vary the throttle position under 50% and limit full throttle use. New drive belts should be washed with warm, soapy water and allowed to air dry prior to use. Always take time to warm up the belt and driveline prior to operating the snowmobile. Free the track and skis from the ground before engaging throttle. 52
