2. Move the rocker assembly upward and move the rocker arm assembly downward. Move the
rocker assembly several times. The oil film is removed in order to get a true zero reading on the
dial indicator. Use the 147-2060 Wrench (3) and use the 147-2059 Torque Wrench (4) . Install
the socket wrench and install the torque wrench on the nut of the rocker arm. Apply upward
pressure to the front of the rocker assembly. Set the dial indicator to zero. The weight of the
torque wrench (4) allows the valve lash to be read. Do not apply any pressure on the torque
wrench.

3. Loosen the locknut. The locknut is located on the adjustment screw of the pushrod. Turn the
adjustment screw until the valve lash is set to specifications. Tighten the nut for the adjustment
screw to 70 15 Nm (50 11 lb ft ). The 147-2059 Torque Wrench is preset to the torque that is
required. Check the adjustment again.
