Tensioning timing belt

  1. Fit tool 1860845000 in the opening in the automatic tensioner support; rotate the tool so as to exert a force on the automatic tensioner until the maximum tension is reached, then tighten the nut fixing the tensioner to the support.
  2. Tighten the bolt fixing the camshaft pulley, inlet side and exhaust side to a pair of 11.8 daNm using tool 1860831000.
  3. Remove the pair of tools 1860875000 and replace the camshaft caps (marked during the removal) in their correct position and tighten them to a torque of 1.5 daNm. Remove the flywheel lock 1860898000, then rotate the crankshaft through two revolutions in its direction of rotation.
