The important thing is to not get on it until it's fully engaged and to not try and quick-shift it. Like the others said, put 500 miles on with good solid engagements and limited slipping. Then you'll be good to go. If you have to get into it, it's not the end of the world, just make sure it's fully engaged and don't rev too high...
