Default MOTOR BREAK IN ON A STARTER BOX?

So I just oredered my first starter box. I am also going to be breaking in a couple of new engines. I have never used a starter box before so my question is... How do I go about breaking in a motor with the starter box? I have only ever broken them in with a pull starter.
THANKS!

matty
if you have a temp gun do your self a favor heat the head up to about 150 f. then start it on the box. It will turn over a lot easier and save excess wear on the starterboxes motors and belt. That sheet i sent you with my break in checklist it a simple heat cycle meathod like cen racing was talking about.
