Default Shellubrication Chart X560

I found this in my box of stuff which is of passing interest. Many of you have probably seen or have one but I just wanted to share. The valve clearance advice on page 2 is a bit worrying though!

Thanks

the valve clearance for exhaust matches the WSM for HOT and 400, 401 and early 403. But inlet seems definitely wrong.

@all

What do you use for the propeller shaft?

Hypoid oil 140 like Spirax 140 EP (as mentioned in the manual)

or

grease like Retinax A?
