• Check that the fluid level in the reservoir tank is within the specified

range (MAX – MIN lines).

• Visually check for any clutch fluid leakage around the reservoir

tank.

• Check the clutch system for any leakage if the fluid level is

extremely low (lower than MIN).

CLUTCH FLUID : Air Bleeding Procedure

INFOID:0000000011497371

NOTE:
Do not use a vacuum assist or any other type of power bleeder on this system. Use of a vacuum assist or
power bleeder will not purge all the air from the system.

CAUTION:

• Monitor clutch fluid level in reservoir tank to make sure it does not empty.
• Keep painted surface on the body or other parts free of clutch fluid. If it spills, wipe up immediately

and wash the affected area with water.

• Bleed the air of bleeding connector (1).

1.

Fill reservoir tank with new clutch fluid.

2.

Connect a transparent vinyl hose to air bleeder of bleeding con-
nector.

3.

“Depress” and “release” the clutch pedal slowly and fully 15
times at an interval of 2 to 3 seconds and release the clutch
pedal.

4.

Push the lock pin (1) of the bleeding connector (2), and maintain
the position.

CAUTION:

Hold it to prevent releasing clutch tube from bleeding con-
nector when fluid pressure is applied in the tube.

5.

Slide clutch tube (1) in the direction of the arrow as shown in the
figure.

•

6.

Depress the clutch pedal soon and hold it, and then bleed the air
from the piping.

CAUTION:

Hold it to prevent releasing clutch tube from bleeding con-
nector when fluid pressure is applied in the tube.

7.

Return clutch tube and lock pin to their original positions.

8.

Release clutch pedal and wait for 5 seconds.
