(Appendix B, Item 1)

NOTE

All rocker lever housings are removed the same. This procedure

covers one rocker lever housing.

Rocker lever housings are installed with screw-assembled

washers on late model engines.

1. Loosen six locknuts (4) and turn out six adjusting screws (3) two turns counterclockwise on six

rocker levers (2).

2. Remove five screw-assembled washers (1), radiator bracket (9), rocker lever housing (8), and

gasket (7) from cylinder head (6). Discard gasket (7).

CAUTION

Each cylinder has an exhaust push tube, intake push tube, and

injector push tube. The injector push tube is the largest and seats

in the cam follower socket. It is important that each push tube be

tagged so they can be reinstalled in the same location. Failure to

do so may result in damage to equipment.

3. Remove six push tubes (5) from cylinder head (6).

NOTE

For disassembly, cleaning, inspection, repair, and assembly of

rocker lever housing, refer to para. 3-15.
