Set the pressure accumulator in place and twist it into position using an oil filter strap. Use an open-ended wrench to tighten the pressure accumulator (tightening torque 30 Nm/22 ftlb.).
Fit holder for the coolant lines on the transmission (underneath the pressure accumulator). Clip coolant lines into the holder on the underside of the transmission.

1. 5.1. Start the engine and bleed the clutch high-pressure hydraulic system. To do this, press the clutch pedal approx. 10 times with the engine running.
2. 5.2. Then switch the engine off and correct the fluid level.
3. 5.3. Wipe off the dipstick for this purpose. Close and then re-open the cap. The fluid level should be in the hatched area beneath the "Cold" marking (marking = maximum level) at → "Cold" marking: approx. 20°C . Top up with Pentosin if necessary. The higher marking "Hot" is for a fluid temperature of → "Hot" marking: approx. 80°C .
  Do not add too much Pentosin! The respective markings are for the maximum fluid level at the "COLD" or "HOT" temperature. When warmed up, the fluid level must not exceed the "Hot max" marking!
