Checking Brake And Clutch Fluid Level - Ducati MONSTER S4R Manuel D'utilisation Et Entretien

Checking brake and clutch fluid level (fig. 46)
The level must not fall below the MIN marks on the
reservoirs.
If level drops below the limit, air might get into the circuit
and affect the operation of the system involved.
Brake and clutch fluid must be topped up and changed at
the intervals specified in the routine maintenance chart
(see Warranty Card) by a Ducati Dealer or Authorized
Workshop.
E
Important
It is recommended all brake and clutch lines be
changed every four years.
Brake system
If you find exceeding play on brake lever or pedal and brake
pads are still in good condition, contact a Ducati Dealer or
Authorized Workshop to have the system inspected and
any air drained out of the circuit.
Warning
Do not spill any brake and clutch fluid on the
paintwork or on plastic parts or they will damage.
Hydraulic oil is corrosive; it may cause damages and lead
to severe injuries.
Never mix different quality oils.
Check for joint proper sealing.
48
Clutch system
If the control lever has excessive play and the transmission
snatches or jams as you try to engage a gear, it means that
there is air in the circuit. Contact a Ducati Dealer or
Authorized Workshop to have the system inspected and
air drained out.
Warning
Clutch fluid level in the reservoir tends to increase
as the clutch plates friction material wears out. Do not
exceed specified level (3 mm above minimum level).
