RS5F92R : Inspection

FLUID LEAKAGE

• Check clutch line for cracks, deterioration or other damage. Replace any damaged parts.

• Check for fluid leakage by fully depressing clutch pedal while engine is running.

CAUTION:
If leakage occurs around joints, reinstall the joints or, if necessary, replace damaged parts.

FLUID LEVEL

• 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).

RS5F92R : Draining

CAUTION:
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.

1. Connect a transparent vinyl hose to air bleeder of bleeding connector (1).

2. Press the lock pin (1) into the bleeding connector (2), and maintain the position.

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

2 : Bleeding connector

Dimension “A” : 5 mm (0.20 in)

4. Depress clutch pedal to gradually discharge clutch fluid.

CAUTION:
Since the inside of clutch tube is under hydraulic pressure, hold the tube to prevent it from getting disconnected.

RS5F92R : Refilling

CAUTION:
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.

1. Check that there is no foreign material in reservoir tank, and then fill with new clutch fluid.

CAUTION:
Never reuse drained clutch fluid

.

2. Connect a transparent vinyl hose to air bleeder of bleeding connector (1).

3. Press the lock pin (1) into the bleeding connector (2), and maintain the position.

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

2 : Bleeding connector

Dimension “A” : 5 mm (0.20 in)

5. Slowly depress clutch pedal to the full stroke position, and then release the pedal.

CAUTION:
Since the inside of clutch tube is under hydraulic pressure, hold the tube to prevent it from getting disconnected.

6. Repeat step 5 at intervals of 2 or 3 seconds until new clutch fluid is discharged.

CAUTION:
Monitor clutch fluid level in reservoir tank so as not to empty the tank.

7. Return clutch tube and lock pin in their original positions while clutch pedal is depressed.

8. Perform the air bleeding. Refer to CL-12, "RS5F92R : Air Bleeding".

RS5F92R : Air Bleeding

CAUTION:
• Monitor clutch fluid level in reservoir tank so as not to empty the tank.

• 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.

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.

1. Fill reservoir tank with new clutch fluid.

CAUTION:
Never reuse drained clutch fluid.

2. Connect a transparent vinyl hose to air bleeder of bleeding connector (1).

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. Press the lock pin (1) into the bleeding connector (2), and maintain the position.

CAUTION:
Since the inside of clutch tube is under hydraulic pressure, hold the tube to prevent it from getting disconnected.

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

2 : Bleeding connector

Dimension “A” : 5 mm (0.20 in)

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

CAUTION:
Since the inside of clutch tube is under hydraulic pressure, hold the tube to prevent it from getting disconnected.

7. Return clutch tube and lock pin in their original positions.

8. Release clutch pedal and wait for 5 seconds.

9. Repeat steps 3 to 8 until no bubbles are observed in the clutch fluid.

10. Check that the fluid level in the reservoir tank is within the specified range after air bleeding. Refer to CL- 10, "RS5F92R : Inspection".
