associated insertion
plate (3) Insert insertion plate (3) with
arrow indicating the direction of
travel (insertion pl ate) (4) pointing
to the front and, according to the
cylinder head, for the right or left
side into the assembly board (2).
i004 Mount cylinder head (1)with its
front end pointing to the arrow
indicating the dir ection of travel
(assembly board) (5) with one bolt
(6) each at the front and rear onto
the assembly board (2). The cylinder
head (1) can be mounted on the
assembly board (2) without
removing the exhaust manifold.

cylinder head (1) and
position vertically at
the valve disk (top)
(8) Use parts 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 14, 19
from the valve assembly tool case
(valves) (7).

with assembly tool (valves) (7),
remove split valve spring retainer

Check valve disk (top) (8) and
valve disk (bottom) (11) for
formation of burrs, replace if
necessary.
The valve springs (9) of the inlet
valves and exhaust valves are
identical.

Risk of explosion
and poisoning caused
by the melting down
or improper handling
of sodium-filled
valves. Risk of injury
caused by skin contact
with sodium resulting
in heat or chemical
burns.Do not open sodium-filled valves.
Wear protective gloves and safety
glasses when handling damaged
valves.AS05.30-Z-0001-01A
7Remove valve (14) Installation: Check surface of
valve stems for roughness and
formation of ridging (visual
inspection or with a nail). Replace
valves (14) with a rough stem
surface or formation of burrs. Grind
new or reused valves (14) with valve
grinding compound before
installation.
