VALVE CLEARANCE ADJUSTMENT

Valves are adjusted, in pairs, using tool T3880012 to
hold the valve open during shim removal and
replacement.
1. Rotate each tappet bucket until the slots in the
buckets are positioned such that they are pointing
to the outside of the head.

2. Remove the spark plugs to reduce compression
resistance. Engage a high gear and, with the aid of
an assistant, rotate the engine by turning the rear
wheel forward until the pair of valves to be adjusted
are fully open. Take care to ensure that the tappet
buckets do not turn during opening.
NOTE:
• The tool mounting plate is marked `IN' and `EX'
denoting which are the inlet and exhaust sides
of the tool. Always ensure that the tool
assembly instructions are closely followed to
ensure correct tool operation.

inlet valve shims, the legs must be fitted to the side
marked `IN'.
4. Locate the mounting plate to the camshaft caps
above the valves to be adjusted. The tool legs must
face towards the spark plug tubes. Tighten the
