2 Take off the spring and plain washers from the end of the shaft.
3 Slide off the rocker arms, support pedestals and coil springs, keeping them in their originally fitted order. Clean out the oil holes in the shaft.

reassembling and make sure that the flat on
the end of the shaft is to the same side as the
rocker arm adjuster screws. This is essential
for proper lubrication of the components.
