BT05.20-P-0002-01A


Oil hydraulic valve clearance compensating elements and camshaft bearing points, align intake and exhaust camshafts
at axial bearing (arrows).


Mount camshafts so that both bores (B) in camshaft sprockets are facing each other and markings of camshaft (arrows) and camshaft bearing cap are in alignment.
Camshafts are very fragile. Ensure they are installed free of tension.

Observe camshaft assignment!
Camshaft identification numbers must be read off at thrust collar of axial bearing.
