How to properly fill the hydraulic clutch circuit on the Ducati Multistrada 1200S ABS 2015

Clutch fluid is corrosive and will damage paint. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. In case of accidental contact, wash thoroughly with water.

Fill the reservoir with specified fluid taken from an intact container.

Important

During the operation, fluid level must remain at a suitable level at all times. The end of the transparent plastic hose must remain immersed in the discharged fluid at all times.

Operate the clutch lever several times to fill the circuit and expel any air

Connect the bleeding tool to the bleed valve (3).

Note: Pump with the bleeding tool and open the bleed valve (3) making sure that the level does not fall below the MIN mark. 
Repeat the last operation until the fluid flowing from the tube is completely free of air bubbles. If you do not have a bleeding tool available, connect a transparent plastic tubing to the bleed valve (3) as outlined in the draining procedure.

Open the bleed valve by 1/4 of a turn and operate the clutch lever several times until the fluid flows out of the bleed valve (3).

Pull the lever fully and then loosen the bleed valve by at least 1/4 of a turn. Wait for a few seconds; then release the lever gradually while simultaneously closing the bleed valve (3).

Important: Do not release the brake lever until the bleed valve has been fully tightened.

Repeat the bleeding operation until the fluid emerging from the plastic tube is free of air bubbles. Block to a torque of 10 Nm ± 10% (Min. 9 Nm - Max. 11 Nm) the bleed valve (3) and install the protection cap. Top up the fluid level to approximately 3 mm above the MIN mark of the reservoir. Refit cover with membrane (1).
