Brake Burnishing

It is recommended that a burnishing procedure be performed on new vehicles or after installation of new brake pads or rotors. This helps to conform the pads to the rotor surface and achieve optimum braking performance.

Test drive the machine and gradually accelerate to more than 20 mph. Apply light to moderate pressure to the brake pedal to slow the vehicle to roughly 5 mph. Repeat this process 10–30 times, allowing 30 seconds between brake applications for the system to cool down.

IMPORTANT

Do not stop aggressively and do not slow to a complete stop during the burnishing process.

After brake burnishing is complete, drive the vehicle to cool the brake pads and rotors.

NOTICE

The burnishing process may cause there to be brake dust on the wheels and calipers. This is normal. When the system has cooled, use a rag and soapy water (no harsh chemicals) to clean off the dust.
