Valve Adjustment
SP-6. VALVE CLEARANCES
1. Adjust valve clearance after 1000 hours or as needed.
2. To bring the No. 1 cylinder to top dead center in the
compression stroke, align the timing mark; the top
mark of the crank pulley with that of the timing gear
case. Remove the rocker arm cover and turn the
crankshaft foward and backward. If the inlet and
exhaust valves of the No. 1 cylinder do not move it is
in top dead center position. When the valves move,
or rock, turn the crankshaft one full turn and align the
top mark of the crank pulley with the top mark of the
timing gear case.
3. Loosen the lock nut and adjust the clearance between
the rocker arm and valve guide of both the intake and
exhaust valves with the adjustment screw (
Figure 10
).
Clearance on both intake and exhaust valves should be
0.008 in. (0.2 mm).
4. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each cylinder. Each set of
valves must be adjusted individually.
5. Replace the rocker arm cover. Tighten cover nuts to
5 - 8 ft/lbs (0.8 - 2.3 kg/m).
