1.Align:

“I” mark

(with stationary pointer)

Checking steps:

Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise with a wrench.

Align the “I” mark a on the rotor with the stationary pointer b on the crankcase cover. When the “I” mark is aligned with the stationary pointer, the piston is at the Top Dead Center (T.D.C.).

NOTE:

In order to be sure that the piston is at Top Dead Center, the match mark c on the camshaft sprocket must align with the sta- tionary pointer d on the cylinder head as shown in the illustration.

If there is no valve clearance, rotate the crankshaft counterclockwise one turn.

2.Loosen:

Camshaft sprocket bolt 1

3.Remove:

Timing chain tensioner

Camshaft sprocket 2

NOTE:

Fasten a safety wire to the timing chain 3 to prevent it from falling into the crankcase.

Remove the bolt 1 while holding the rotor nut with a wrench.
