  3. Screw thrust spindle (02) 602 589 04 63 00 together with thrust pin 602 589 04 63 01 into chain separating tool (03) 602 589 02 33 00.
  4. Fit chain separating tool (03) onto timing chain.
  5. Screw in thrust spindle (02) sufficiently until thrust pin is positioned against the left (viewed in direction of rotation of engine) timing chain pin of a chain link.
  6. Press out thrust pin of timing chain by screwing in thrust spindle (02a).

  9. Drawing in chain 

  10. Connect new timing chain (5) to old timing chain (4) with the connecting link (04) 602 589 02 40 00 and secure.
  11. Rotate engine at crankshaft in direction of rotation of engine and draw in new timing chain (5).
  12. Remove connecting link (04) and take off old timing chain (4).

    NOTES It is essential to remove the connecting link (04). It is only and assembly aid and is not suitable for engine running.
