[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4229794, member: 15054"] I am sure there is instructions with it. but here ya go off the web. [TABLE] [TR] [TD][B]1.[/B] Fill the fuel tank with gasoline.[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][B]2.[/B] Check the oil level, add recommended oil as needed to maintain safe operating range.[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][B]3.[/B] Read/study the owners manual’s new operator safe driving procedures.[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][B]4.[/B] Perform the entire recommended Pre-Ride inspection.[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][B]5.[/B] Avoid aggressive use of the brakes. See Brake System break-in.[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][B]6.[/B] Constantly vary throttle position, do not operate at sustained idle.[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][B]7.[/B] Only carry light loads.[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][B]8.[/B] Perform first initial “break-in” oil & filter change at first 25 hours or one month. See “Engine oil & filter change procedure” in maintenance section.[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][B]9.[/B] Check fluid levels of transmission and all gearcases after the first 25 hours and 100 hours thereafter. Now I would research what oil and I would bet they have an oil for it where you purchased it. and filters. For me a new auto engine gets 45 minutes of run time max on the first oil and filter and then It gets the same great oil and filter as I do not cheap out on oil. Then I drive it 100- 300 miles and change it all again. My motorcycles got oil changed at 1500 miles most times but if I beat on them it may only be in for a day or 2. But I am off my rocker on maintenance and know about oil shear. [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/QUOTE]
