Notes:  
     
Mark the direction of rotation of the toothed belt 
with chalk or felt pen before removing. A used 
belt can break if it rotates in the wrong direction 
when reinstalled. 
     The toothed belt tensioning element is oil-
damped and can therefore only be compressed 
slowly by applying constant pressure. 
    
-  Using a hex key, turn toothed belt tensioning roller -1- clockwise 8 mm 
in direction of arrow until tensioning lever -2- compresses tensioning 
element -3- sufficiently to enable special tool T 400 11 to be installed in 
drilling and in plunger. 
-  Insert special tool T 400 11 and release toothed belt tensioning roller.
-  Insert camshaft clamp 3391 in the securing plates of the two 
camshafts. 
-  Loosen both camshaft bolts and remove approx. 5 turns.
-  Take out camshaft clamp 3391.
    
-  Pull off both camshaft sprockets with special tool T40001.
