Make sure the trough is positioned so it will catch the tappet
when the wooden dowel is removed.
Note: Identify the location of each tappet as it is removed. The
tappets must be installed in their original locations.
Only remove one tappet at a time. Remove the rubber band
from the two companion tappets, securing the tappet not to be
removed with the rubber band.
Pull the wooden dowel from the tappet bore allowing the tappet
to fall into the trough.
Normally the tappet will fall over when it drops into the trough.
Use a flashlight to determine this. If the tappet does not fall
over, shake the trough gently to get it to do so.
