Installation steps:
CAUTION:
Tighten the cylinder head using the rota-
tion angle procedure to obtain uniform
tightening torque.
Wash the threads and contact surfaces of
the bolts, the contact surfaces of the plain
washers, the contact surface of the cylin-
der head, and the threads of the crank-
case.
Apply the molybdenum disulfide grease on
the threads and contact surfaces of the
bolts and on both contact surfaces of the
plain washers.
