Lubetronic chain oiler -tips welcome

[Torque650GS]

Hello guys,
How is everybody?
Hope you are enjoying the roads out there.
I have Lubetronic fitted on my F650GS, and when it ran out of oil, i have left it empty for like 3 weeks.
Now i topped it up, but with great difficulties squeezing the oil into the tube that leads into the main container. However, it seems like it's still empty as it's not oiling.
So i am not sure if it got messed up as i haven't topped it up straight away, or if there is some trick to it. ( I have lost my instructions, and cant find them anywhere online)
It felt like it's blocked up there. Sorry, if i am not explaining it too clear.
If any of you have Lubetronic, could you drop me some hints and tips about re filling it please?
Many thanks

Yana

"Purely Guessing" there may be a solenoid valve that opens allowing drip/ per unit time or distance. Power the solenoid to open ( 12 vdc) & then try to fill. To fill the reservoir you may possibly need to hold it upside down. Sounds like its airlocked...

As I said, A pure guess....

The answer is motrax lubetronics are crap

i had one fitted to my bike when i bought it
If it runs out when you eventually get it filled via the stupid fekking tube , It will take a hundred or so miles for the oil to make its way to the sprocket .
If yours has the optional timer set it too max until the oil starts flowing ...
of cource it could be blocked with some crap but try the above first ..
