Clutch Fluid: Bleeding

WARNING:

Brake and clutch fluid is poison and should be stored carefully in marked containers out of the reach of children.

CAUTION:

- Use only new fluid from a sealed container.
- Clean the filler cap before removing (if applicable).
- Do not spill clutch fluid onto painted surfaces. If it spills, wipe up immediately and wash the affected area with water.

NOTE:

Monitor the fluid level in the reservoir tank to make sure it does not empty.

1) Top off reservoir with new recommended brake fluid. Refer to [Recommended Fluids and Lubricants [for USA and Canada] [1][2]Maintenance ].
2) Connect a transparent vinyl tube and container to the air bleeder valve on the clutch operating cylinder.





3) Fully depress the clutch pedal several times.
4) With the clutch pedal depressed, open the bleeder valve to release the air.
5) Close the bleeder valve.
6) Repeat steps 3 to 5 until clear brake fluid comes out of the air bleeder valve.
7) Tighten the air bleeder to the specified torque.
