1. Slowly turn camshaft (A) clockwise, as viewed from
flywheel end, until No. 6R intake valve has just closed.
2. Closing point is determined by trying to rotate the swivel
pad (B) on the intake valve adjusting screw while the
camshaft is being rotated. The valve is closed the in-
stant the swivel pad is free to move.

No. 6 intake valve .
Note.
Do not force camshaft drive shaft. The
shaft is machined with a 24-tooth spline on inner
end, and a 28-tooth spline on outer end. Thi s
difference in number of teeth provides a vernie r
effect which makes it possible to index the drive
shaft so it will engage the splines of the camshaft
drive gearshaft and camshaft drive beve l
gearshaft at some point within 360 degrees. An
accurat e
setting i s
then provide d
withou t
changing the relationship of the camshaft an d
crankshaft .
1. Maintain the position of camshaft as set in figure 7-24
and the crankshaft position set in figure 7-21.
2. Insert camshaft drive shaft (A), using mechanical
and
mate
splines
on
drive
shaft with splines in camshaft drive bevel gearshaft.
When splines of drive shaft do not mate with splines of
camshaft gearshaft, withdraw drive shaft and turn
slightly before again attempting insertion.
Note .
It may be necessary to repeat thi s
operation a number of times before splines wil l
mate and allow drive shaft to be inserted int o
position .
