2.23 CHANGING THE CLUTCH FLUID
Carefully read 1.3.9 (PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL
INFORMATION) and 1.4.5 (CLUTCH CONTROL
FLUID).
Change the clutch fluid every two years.
WARNING
Handle the fluid with care: it can chemically alter
paint and plastic or rubber parts, etc.
DISPOSE OF THE FLUID IN COMPLIANCE WITH
ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS.
Remove the dust cover.
Fit a piece of transparent plastic tubing over the
bleeder nipple (1), and insert the other end into a
container.
Loosen the bleeder nipple (1) by approximately one
turn.
NOTE
Throughout this operation, make sure there is
always fluid present in the reservoir; otherwise, after the
operation you will need to bleed the system, see 2.20
(CLUTCH CONTROL SYSTEM BLEEDING).
Watch the reservoir (2) as the fluid flows out and
tighten the bleeder nipple (1) before it empties entirely.
Top up the reservoir (2), see 2.18 (CHECKING AND
TOPPING UP THE CLUTCH FLUID).
Loosen the bleeder nipple (1) again by approximately
half a turn.
Watch as the fluid flows out through the tube. As soon
as you observe that the fluid flowing through the tube is
clear, and no longer dark, tighten the bleeder nipple(1)
again and remove the tube.
Tightening torque for bleeder nipple (1):
14.75 ftlb (20 Nm).
Replace the dust cover.
Top up to restore the proper level of fluid in the
reservoir (2), see 2.18 (CHECKING AND TOPPING
UP THE CLUTCH FLUID).
