[9] CHECK POINT OF EVERY 800 HOURS

Valve Clearance
IMPORTANT

• The valve clearance must be checked and adjusted when
engine is cold.
1. Remove the head cover, the glow plugs and the timing window
cover on the flywheel housing.
2. Align the 1TC mark line (2) on the flywheel and center of timing
window (1) so that the No. 1 piston comes to the compression or
overlap top dead center.
3. Check the following valve clearance marked with "" using a
feeler gauge.
4. If the clearance is not within the factory specifications, adjust with
the adjusting screw.

NOTE

• The "TC" marking line on the flywheel is just for No. 1
cylinder. There is no TC marking for the other cylinders.
• No. 1 piston comes to the top dead center position when the
TC marking is aligned with center of timing window on
flywheel-housing.
clockwise and counterclockwise to see if the piston is at the
compression top dead center or the overlap position. Now
referring to the table below, readjust the valve clearance.
(The piston is at the compression top dead center when both
the IN. and EX. valves do not move; it is at the overlap
position when both the valves move.)
• Finally turn the flywheel 6.28 rad (360 ) and align the TC
marking line and the center of timing window. Adjust all the
other valve clearance as required.
• After turning the flywheel counterclockwise twice or three
times, recheck the valve clearance, firmly tighten the lock
nut of the adjusting screw.
• The sequence of cylinder numbers is given as No. 1, No. 2
and No. 3 starting from the gear case side.
