Timing Chain Removal/Installation

Warning
•  A hot engine can cause severe burns. Turn off the engine and wait until it is cool before servicing.
Caution
•  When rotating the camshaft using a wrench on the cast hexagon, the wrench may contact the rocker arm and damage the rocker arm. To prevent damage to the rocker arm when holding the camshaft on the cast hexagon, use a wrench on the rear side of the engine as shown in the figure to secure a clearance between the cam.
