Adjustment and Benchtesting
Valve Clearance
Check and adjust the valve clearance on a cold en-
gine. The valve height is adjusted first, and then the
clearance of the rocker arm.
IMPORTANT!
The engine must under no circum-
stances be running when checking and adjust-
ing the valve clearance since the valves can
knock against the pistons and cause serious
damage.
IMPORTANT!
Make sure that the stop lever is
pulled out and the starter key switched off.
Top dead center on compression stroke
1.
Turn the engine in the normal direction to align the
timing mark [1 .8] on the damper with the pointer
as shown.
2.
Remove the cylinder cover and make sure the in-
let and exhaust valves have some clearance. If
the timing mark [1 .8] is aligned with the pointer,
either the No. 1 or No. 8 piston is at top dead cen-
ter on the compression stroke.
Adjust valve height
IMPORTANT!
Clearance between valve yoke
and rotator should be min. 1.5 mm [0.059 in.]. If
not, interference will occur and cause the valve
cones to get out of place. If clearance is less
than 1.5 mm [0.059 in.] after valve adjustment,
consult your dealer.
NOTE!
If the valve seats are worn, one valve will dif-
fer from another in height, increasing the clearance
between the valve stem and yoke, leading to an in-
creased valve clearance.
1.
Unscrew lock nut and adjusting screw on the
valves so that there is clearance between the
yoke and the valve stem.
2.
Press the valve yoke down.Turn the adjusting
screw until it touches the valve stem. Turn an ad-
ditional 10 degrees. Lock the adjusting screw
with the lock nut.
