Use and maintenance
Changing the clutch fluid
Warning
Clutch fluid will damage painted surfaces if spilled on them. In addition, it is very harmful in contact with the skin or with the eyes;
in the event of accidental contact wash the affected area with abundant running water.
Remove the cap (1) and membrane from the clutch fluid reservoir (A).
Aspirate the brake fluid from inside the reservoir (A).
Fill the reservoir (A) with new clutch fluid up to the MAX mark.
Operate the clutch lever two or three times until the circuit is pressurized.
Hold the lever pulled in towards the handgrip.
Attach a length of transparent plastic tubing to the bleed valve (2) and insert the other end of the tubing in a container placed on
the floor.
Loosen the bleed valve (2) to allow fluid to escape.
Warning
During the filling operation, always keep the fluid level above the MIN mark to prevent the formation of air bubbles in the circuit.
Allow the fluid to flow from the bleed valve (2) until a different colour liquid appears. Tighten the bleed valve (2) to the specified
torque (Sect. C 3) and top up the reservoir fluid level.
