b
• "I" mark
(with stationary pointer)
Checking steps:
• Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise with
a wrench.
• Align the "I" mark a on the rotor with the
stationary pointer b on the crankcase
cover. When the "I" mark is aligned with
the stationary pointer, the piston is at the
Top Dead Center (T.D.C.).

• In order to be sure that the piston is at Top
Dead Center, the "I" mark c on the cam-
shaft sprocket must align with the station-
ary pointer d on the cylinder head as
shown in the illustration.

crankshaft counterclockwise one turn.

3. Remove:
• Timing chain tensioner
• Camshaft sprocket 2
NOTE:
• Fasten a safety wire to the timing chain 3 to
prevent it from falling into the crankcase.

nut with a wrench.
