Specifications

Align the plunger rod (1) and the injector push rod (3) with
each other, and parallel to the plunger rod.
NOTE: Tighten the clamp handle (2) after the plunger rod is
aligned with the injector push rod.
Loosen the support bracket (4) and slide the bracket
down until the plunger rod (1) engages the injector push
rod (3).
NOTE: The support bracket must be aligned with the ver-
tical line on the clamp handle bracket. The push rod (3) must
be vertically aligned with the plunger rod (1).
Compress the plunger rod tension spring approximately
12.7 mm [0.50-inch], and tighten the support bracket.
Determine the piston top dead center (TDC) on the com-
pression stroke by rotating the crankshaft in the direction
of engine rotation (clockwise) until the piston plunger
reaches its uppermost position.
NOTE: Use only the crankshaft to rotate the engine. The
use of the gears will result in false measurements. Gear lash
must be closed up in the direction of normal rotation (crank-
shaft clockwise ).
