IMPORTANT:
To check the ignition timing, the tim-
ing advance curve must be locked first. This allows
to perform ignition timing at
any RPM
by keeping
the timing “frozen” so that it does not vary with
engine RPM. See FIXED TIMING FUNCTION
for
more information.
NOTE: Fixed Timing
function must be activated
before
starting engine when using the MPEM pro-
grammer. When using B.U.D.S., it must be activat-
ed
after
starting the engine.

If mark on PTO flywheel is perfectly align-
ed with timing mark pointer, no adjustment is re-
quired. If mark does not align with pointer, recheck
PTO flywheel mark before adjusting ignition timing
to ensure PTO flywheel has not loosen or moved.
