Cylinder head
1. Align:“I” mark
(with stationary pointer)
Checking steps:
Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise with
a wrench.
Align the “I” mark a on the rotor with the
stationary pointer b on the crankcase
cover. When the “I” mark is aligned with
the stationary pointer, the piston is at the
Top Dead Center (T.D.C.).
NOTE:
In order to be sure that the piston is at Top
Dead Center, the “I” mark c on the cam-
shaft sprocket must align with the station-
ary pointer d on the cylinder head as
shown in the illustration.
If there is no valve clearance, rotate the
crankshaft counterclockwise one turn.
