Valve Adjustment

 

 

1.Remove cylinder cover, rocker arm cover, and spark plug. Rotate the crankshaft while observing the piston through the spark plug opening. When the piston

is at the top of the compression stroke (TDC), the valves can be adjusted.

CAUTION!

ŶPerforming a valve adjustment incorrectly may cause hard starting and/or can damage the engine.

ŶIf you are unfamiliar with this engine or uncomfortable with this procedure, consult with an autho- rized Shindaiwa servicing dealer.

2.Loosen adjuster locknut so that the

2.5 mm Allen socket head adjustment screw can turn freely.

3.Insert 0.10 mm feeler gauge between valve stem tip and rocker arm.

4.Turn adjustment screw (clockwise = tighter, counter-clockwise = looser) until feeler gauge is almost snug. Back off just enough to allow gauge to slip out with limited resistance.

5.While holding the adjustment screw in place with the Allen driver, tighten the locknut with a wrench.

6.Turn engine over several times, and returnthe to TDC-compression. Recheck with proper feeler gauge to make sure clearance adjustment did not change as a result of tightening the locknut. Readjust as necessary.

7.Replace rocker arm cover gasket to assure proper sealing and install cover.

IMPORTANT!

If a new gasket is not available and/or the old gasket is not damaged, the old gasket may be reused. Never use cracked or dam- aged gaskets!
