1-3 1 RECOMMENDED OIL (4-Stroke Model) The recommended oil to use is a multi-grade oil cali- brated to the ambient temperature at which the engine is run. See the viscosity chart for details. GEN-0048 After the engine break-in period, the engine oil should be changed every 3500 miles (on the 4-Stroke Touring and Trail) and before prolonged storage. Break-In Procedure (2-Stroke Models) The Arctic Cat 2-stroke engine (when new or rebuilt) requires a short break-in period before the engine is sub- jected to heavy load conditions. Arctic Cat requires that the first tankful of fuel be premixed at a 100:1 ratio in all oil-injection models. During the break-in period, a maximum of 1/2 throttle is recommended; however, brief full-throttle accelerations and variations in driving speeds contribute to good engine break-in.
