TIMING CHAIN ASSEMBLY
TIMING CHAIN ASSEMBLY

id011000505600
-
Caution
-
• If the camshaft is rotated with the timing chain removed and the piston at the top dead center position, the valve may contact the piston and the engine could be damaged. When rotating the camshaft with the timing chain removed, rotate it after lowering the piston from the top dead center position.• When rotating the camshaft using a wrench on the cast hexagon, the wrench may contact the rocker arm and damage the rocker arm. To prevent damage to the rocker arm when holding the camshaft on the cast hexagon, use the wrench at engine rear side as shown in the figure to secure a clearance between the cam.

Note
-
• Width at the cast hexagon of the camshaft is 22—24 mm {0.87—0.94 in}.
