CAUTION

Turn the crankshaft clockwise.
1. Turn the crankshaft clockwise so that the camshaft sprocket

timing marks become horizontal to the cylinder head upper
surface, and set the cylinder No. 1 to the top dead center of
compression. At this time, check that the crankshaft pulley
timing mark is in the 0-degree position of the ignition timing
indicator of the timing chain case assembly.

CAUTION

• When inserting special tool MB992103 into the timing

chain case assembly inside, pay attention to the posi-
tion of the timing chain to avoid damage to the timing
chain and timing chain tension side guide. Do not
insert the special tool beyond its insertion guideline.

• If unlocking the timing chain tensioner is insufficient,

the special tool cannot be inserted to the insertion
guideline. Do not insert the special tool forcibly, follow
Step 1 again to unlock the timing chain tensioner and
insert the special tool.
