the fixed mark(small dimple about 2 o’ clock on the
gasket surface of the casing/under arrow stem) , as
shown in fig. 18.

marks facing as shown in fig. 19. This operation must
be carried out without actuating the valves (rotate
it clockwise or counter clockwise as necessary).

cam pulleys by turning the crankshaft several times
prior to fastening the nut. After having fastened
the nut, make sure the pulley reference marks align
with the fixed ones.
