Safety notes:
Turn the engine in the direction of engine
rotation ONLY on the crankshaft sprocket.
The crankshaft and camshaft sprockets must
never be rotated after the timing belt has
been removed.

arrester when loosening or tightening the
camshaft sprocket.
> When turning the camshaft, the crankshaft
must not be positioned at top dead center
(TDC).

with oil or cooling water.
