Tools Required 104 589 01 01 00 Spanner
111 589 03 15 00 Insert Pin Inspection Procedure
1. Position the NO.1 cylinder piston to ATDC 20° by turning
the crankshaft Notice
When the ATDC 20 ° mark on vibration damper is aligned
with timing gear case cover, the intake and exhaust cam of cylinder will make the slope to the center and will face up.
In this way, the insert hole in NO.1 and NO.4 camshaftbearing cap will match in line with the flange hole forcamshaft sprocket.
2. Check the timing as below procedure;
- Check if the insert pin (111 589 03 15 00) can be inserted into the NO.1 and NO.4 bearing cap hole.
- At this condition, check if the ATDC 20 ° mark on vibration
damper aligns with the marker on the timing gear case.

Adjustment Procedure
1. Position the NO.1 cylinder to ATDC 20° .
2. Remove the chain tensioner.
3. Remove the exhaust camshaft sprocket.
4. Adjust the timing position with inserting the insert pin (f6.5mm, 111 589 03 15 00) into the NO.1 and NO.4
camshaft bearing cap hole and flange hole while rotating the camshaft by using wrench (104 589 01 01 00).
5. Install the chain to the intake camshaft sprocket.
6. Install the chain to the exhaust camshaft sprocket and tighten the bolt.Installation Notice

Removal Procedure
1. Position the number 1 cylinder to A TDC 20°.
Notice Remove the oil filler cap at adjustment position, and check whether the intake camshaft cam ’s lobe (arrow) stays in the
upper side.
2. Cover the alternator with a clean cloth.
3. Release the tension by unscrewing the screw plug once.
NoticeIn case that the tension is reduced by unscrewing the screw
plug, reinstall after completely removing the chain tensioner.If the chain tensioner is tightened again without completely reducing its tension, then the snap ring doesn ’t return to
the original position and the tension gets excedded.
