  2. Remove (disengage) cover over the brake fluid reservoir.
  3. Drain brake fluid reservoir until the brake fluid level is below the adapter (line to the clutch master cylinder).

    Another option (as an alternative to draining) for removing the corresponding quantity from the shared reservoir (brake and clutch fluid reservoir) is to pump out some of the brake fluid at the front brake calliper. To do this, open a ventilation valve (use a collecting bottle) and actuate the brake pedal (pump the pedal until the fluid level in the reservoir has dropped as required). The wheel does not need to be removed for this.

  4. Remove driver's seat (to facilitate assembly when removing and installing the clutch master cylinder).
