MV Agusta Brutale 990 R Workshop Manual page 27

Pour around 3 kg of engine oil (as specified in the table
on page B-8) into the filling hole.
Close the filler hole using the appropriate cap.
Before replacing the filler cap, grease the O-ring (1)
with silicone grease (see figure).
Tighten the cap (2) to the prescribed tightening torque.
Tightening torque: 35 N·m
Switch on the engine for several minutes.
After switching off the engine, wait at least ten minutes
and then check the oil level. Ensure that the motorcycle
is placed on level ground and is in a vertical position.
The correct level must be as close as possible to the
"MAX" mark shown on the engine casing. Do not sur-
pass this limit.
Check any oil leakages.
Avoid turning the engine over with the oil
level lower than minimum. It could compro-
mise the correct functioning of the engine.
If the level after the topping-up, is over the
"MAX" reference notch, correct it by emp-
tying a little oil out of the engine.
Oil tubes
During normal maintenance procedures check the cor-
rect assembly of components and check for blow-bys
or oil leaks from the engine parts.
In particular:
– Blow-bys at the base of the engine.
– Oil filter support
– Oil pump-engine cylinder head delivery tubing.
When oil leaks are identified, even small
ones, externally clean the above parts. If oil
leaks continue, proceed with the overhaul of
components as described in the engine
workshop manual (Part. Cod. 8000B3258).
