WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
  • To avoid damage, be careful not to apply torque exceeding 3 N.m when rotating the coupling.
  • Do not hit the worm wheel against the minimum lift stopper too strongly.
  • Never loosen the minimum lift stopper.
  1. Rotate the coupling clockwise until the worm wheel contacts the minimum lift stopper slightly.
    NOTE: When rotating the coupling clockwise, the worm wheel should move in the minimum lift direction. When rotating the coupling counterclockwise, the worm wheel should move in the maximum lift direction.

    NOTE: When rotating the coupling by hand, insert a 12-point socket (24 mm[0.9 inch]) into the position on the coupling approximately 5 mm(0.2 inch) away from the rocker shaft holder. Then use a small torque wrench to rotate it slowly.
