Have I missed something?

I've been reading several posts that talk about breaking in procedures for Ariens Snowblowers and I'm confused. I read the manual and all I see is that the oil needs to be changed after 2 hours of use. Am I missing another piece of instruction material? The machine runs great and I hate to change anything but I sure want to do what needs doing so as not to take a change of voiding the warranty. If I'm supposed to do additional maintenance please let me know what it is. I've got about 2 hours on it now and the oil change is on the agenda for the weekend.

Thanks Mountainman. I bought mine from a dealer not a big box store so I assume this was done. I think that other than the oil change I'll leave everything alone for now.

I am sorry, at this point no. I have to stand by my principles and do it manually. I am a man of my word. C

I was angry when I made my first post. This is very unpleasant for me. C
