Ducati MONSTER 696 User Manual

Chain lubrication
The chain fitted on your motorcycle has O-rings to
protect its moving parts from dirt, and to hold the
lubricant inside.
So as not to damage these seals when cleaning the
chain, use special solvents and avoid aggressive
washing with high-pressure steam cleaners. After
cleaning, blow the chain dry or dry it using absorbent
material and apply SHELL Advance Chain or Advance
Teflon Chain on each link.
Important
Using non-specific lubricants may cause severe
damage to the chain and the front and rear sprocket.
