Note
Check and adjust valve clearance of cold or warm engine.
Install a thinner pressure pad (4) if the room for ad­justment is no longer sufficient. Pressure pads are available in thicknesses of 2.5, 3.5 and 4.5 mm.
Attention!
The torque of easy going valve adjusting screws (2) must be checked. This requires removing all spring clamps (1) with a screwdriver and checking the torque with a valve adjusting wrench, part number 110 589 00 01 00, and a torque wrench (e. g. part number 000 589 27 21). If the torque of the valve adjusting screw is less than 20 Nm (2 kpm), replace valve adjusting screw (2) or threaded bushing (3) with valve adjusting screw (2).

1    Remove rubber seals.
2   Check valve clearance between rocker arm and cam­shaft, whereby the cam peak must be up.
The valve clearance is correctly adjusted, if the slip gauge fits tight when pulled through.

 

3 Note layout of intake and exhaust valves.
