                   Engine break-in
           NOTICE
           Failure to perform the engine break-in
           could result in reduced engine life or even
           severe engine damage.

           The engine break-in period is essential to al-
           low the various components of the engines to
           wear and polish themselves to the correct
           operating clearances. This ensures proper
           performance and promotes longer compo-
           nent life.
           (1) Check the engine oil level. (See page 136
              for information on checking  the  engine
              oil level.)
           (2) Launch the boat and start the engines.
              (See page 154 for information on starting
              the engines.)
           (3) For the first 5 minutes, operate with the
              engines at trolling speed.
           (4) For the next 30 minutes, operate with the
              engines speed below 5000 r/min.
           (5) For the next 1 hour, operate with the en-
              gines speed below 6000 r/min.
           After the engine break-in is complete, the
           boat can be operated normally.

                                                                                141
