1. Fit EN-6215-5 side mounts (1) for EN-6215-4 assembly device.



2. Install EN-6215-4 assembly device (1).



3. The spark plug threads must be cleaned of combustion residues to ensure that the counterhold can be attached correctly. Insert tap M14 x 1.25 (1) in the spark plug thread and screw in evenly.
4. Turn the cylinder head baseplate.

Note: There are 2 kinds of counter holder. Type A and type B. Choose the correct type for the existing combustion chamber.

5. Install the counter holder.




Note: Depending upon the combustion chamber organisation, it must be used different holders to protect the valves.

Select the appropriate bore in the lever for this purpose. If the valve-spring compressor cannot be positioned parallel, the lever must be adjusted accordingly.

10. Push the depressing tool (1) down with lever until the valve spring cap is released. Remove the valve cotters.



11. Remove the upper valve spring cap and valve springs and place them in sequence on EN-849 assembly tray.
