Initial Start Up

One of the most important parts of the break-in procedure is the initial starting of your engine!!!!

Read this completely before starting the engine!!!!!!

1. Remove the Air Filter Cover.

2. Twist the throttle wide open and make sure that the accelerator pump is working.

3. Give the engine 2 full fuel squirts and full enrichment or choke.

4. Leave the throttle shut and start the engine.

Upon start of the engine, immediately set the idle at approx. 1000-1200 rpm and let the engine idle while initial idle mixture or air bleed

settings are adjusted,

if needed, to allow the engine to idle properly.

Some of the things you should not do to a new engine are:

 Do not start the engine without first going though the oil pump/lifter priming process described earlier.

 Do not start the engine without a large fan pointed at the engine and on its highest setting.

 Do not rev the engine or blip the throttle repeatedly.

 Do not let the engine idle for long periods.

While these things may seem unimportant please consider that new engines create much more heat than engines that have been broke in.

Remember these are Air Coole

d engines.

On the initial start we recommend letting the engine run approx. 2 minutes then letting it cool before repeating this procedure. Do overall

checks before restarting. Do not over heat the engine! For each 2 minute cycle, run the engine at idle 10-15 seconds then at 2000-2600 rpm

for 10-15 seconds. Check and verify that your engine has adequate oil pressure

and is returning oil to the oil tank.

After you have run the engine for approx. 4-5 minutes, verify that no intake air leaks or oil leaks are present.

Do not let the engine get excessively hot! You can now TAKE YOUR FIRST RIDE!
