Beta Marine Engines

During the sea trial for my new Beta 14, the installers say they could only get the engine up to 3200rpm. The manual says it should go to 3600rpm. Is 3200 over-burdening the engine? Installers say 90% is good enough... is it? And is my warranty still good with max RPMs only at 90%?
