Balance Shaft Removal; Camshaft Timing - International VT 275 V6 Manual

Balance Shaft Removal

• The primary balance shaft rides within two
bushings in the hollow camshaft. With the
rear cover and the
removed, the shaft can be extracted
through the rear of the camshaft. The inner
camshaft bushings are non-serviceable.
Balance Shaft Timing
• The balance shaft is timed during
reassembly by aligning the dot on the
balance shaft gear with the dot on the
crankshaft flange gear.
• With the dots aligned, the flex plate pin,
the balance shaft gear dot, the flange gear
dot and the timing-pin hole will be in a
straight line.

Camshaft Timing

• Camshaft timing is set during assembly.
After installing the camshaft and the
balance shaft, align the timing pin through
the hole in each gear and insert the timing
pin tool through the gears until it engages
the crankcase hole. Align the dot on the
balance shaft with the dot on the face of
the crankshaft flange gear as the
crankshaft is lowered into the crankcase
main bearings.
• With the dots aligned, the flex plate pin,
the balance shaft gear dot, the flange gear
dot and the timing-pin hole will be in a
straight line.
