Tragu 0 Posted April 30, 2001 I have a new Regent with a dozer/snow blade and I need to move some stones not bigger than a quarter in diameter I want to know if it is advisable to do this with a machine with only 4 hours on the engine or should I wait until I have more hours on it. Thanx everyone for all the info Doug Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarcM 0 Posted April 30, 2001 Hey Doug, I would wait until you break the motor in. Be sure to read my posting 3637! Take care, Marc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tragu 0 Posted April 30, 2001 It is a Kohler 14 horse what is the break in period 5 hours when you change the oil and filter for the first time. Tragu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tragu 0 Posted April 30, 2001 I agree with the break in period. Not only just the break in but anything that might just happen to come loose here or there. I waited 3 hours before I started pushing anything with my Broadmoor this past fall. You could call your dealer and see also what they recomend doing. Seriously now just drive the thing around for a few hours even if is up and down your road just to even get some time on the seat. >>->happyjack<-<< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
