sate for the fluid which has been pumped out.
• Remove the small tube.
• Refit the rubber cap.
Note:
Handle brake fluid with care: being corrosive, it
can damage painted or plastic parts irreparably.
CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER FLUID
Check the fluid in the reservoir. The level must never be
below half-way up the reservoir. To bring the clutch fluid
up to the correct level, refill the reservoir by unscrewing
the two screws A, removing the filler cap B and topping
up the fluid.
Note:
Change the fluids in accordance with the inter-
vals in the table on page 29, using the lubricants
recommended on page 13.
BLEEDING THE CLUTCH SYSTEM
To bleed the air from the clutch system, follow the steps
below:
• Remove the rubber cap from the bleed-nipple C.
• Take off the clutch fluid reservoir cover.
• Fit one end of a small transparent tube over the bleed-
nipple D, and insert the other end into a container.
• Pump 2/3 times with the lever and hold the lever
down.
• Unscrew the bleed-nipple, allowing the fluid to flow
through the tube.
• Reclose the bleed-nipple and release the lever.
• If you can see air bubbles through the tube, repeat the
above operations until the fluid that comes out is free
of air.
Note:
During this operation it is important that you top
up the master-cylinder reservoir continually, to
compensate for the fluid which has been pumped
out.
• Remove the small tube.
• Refit the rubber cap.
