ENGINE _________________________________________________________________

IMPORTANT: A separate Engine Manual, prepared by
the engine manufacturer, is supplied with this
groomer. Read the engine manual carefully until you
are familiar with the operation and maintenance of
the engine. Proper
manufacturer's directions will assure maximum
service life of the engine. To order replacement
engine manuals contact the engine manufacturer.
The proper break-in of a new engine can make a
considerable difference to the performance and life of the
engine.
Note: The groomer is designed to operate most
efficiently at the preset governor setting. Do not change
the engine governor settings or overspeed the engine.
During the break-in period, Jacobsen recommends the
following:
Diesel Engine:
1. During the first 50 hours of operation, a new engine
should be allowed to reach an operating temperature of
at least 140°F (60°C) prior to operation at full load.
2. Check the engine oil level twice daily during the first 50
hours of operation. Higher than normal oil consumption
is not uncommon during the initial break-in period.
3. Change engine oil and oil filter element after first 50
hours of operation.
4. Check and adjust fan and alternator belts.
5. Refer to Section 5 and Engine Manual for specific
maintenance intervals.

(batteries, fuel, lubricants, anti-freeze, etc.) according

service, contact an authorized Jacobsen Dealer.
Gasoline Engine:
1. Drive modestly for the first 25 hours at reduced engine
speed.

3. Allow the engine to reach operating temperature
before operating at full load.

operation.
