Should all be in the manual.
Probably says rpms below 3000/4000 for the first 10 hours and always vary the rpm. Don't run at the same revs for an extended period.

I have a 75 4 St Merc, all I was told to do was not flog the guts out of it and not keep the revs constant ie. vary the rev range every so often for the first 20hrs
