INSTALLATION OF THE HYDRAULIC VAL-
VE TAPPET
NOTE:
New hydraulic valve tappets are partially
emptied depending on the bearing and
are pumped full of oil during the starting
process. The oil passes through the bore
into the hydraulic valve tappet. The re-
taining ring holds the piston in position
when the hydraulic valve tappet is remo-
ved. See

piston is installed, the arrow on the pis-
ton crown points towards the propeller
shaft. This means with axial offset down-
wards for cylinders 1 and 3 and with axial
offset upwards for cylinders 2 and 4.
