Checking brake and clutch fluid level
Fluid level should never fall below the MIN mark on each
reservoir (fig. 46 and 46a).
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 on
the Warranty Card by a Ducati Dealer or Authorised
Workshop.
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 your Ducati Dealer
or Authorised Workshop to have the system inspected
and any air drained out of the circuit.
Warning
Brake and clutch fluid and will damage paintwork and
plastic parts if accidentally spilled.
Hydraulic oil is corrosive; it may cause damage and lead to
severe injuries.
Never mix different quality oils.
Check seals for proper sealing.
