Valve Adjustment- '96 E300 D

Hola,
I don't have any kind of service manual for the newer diesels, but I was wondering if and how often the valves need adjusting on my '96 E300. I know it's important to do it often on the earlier models. Mine has about 70,000 miles on it and there is no mention in the maintenace schedule about adjusting the valves. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!!

Thanks guys. I didn't think they needed adjusting, but when I talked to a mechanic about putting new glow plugs in, he said that I should have the valves adjusted while the intake was off. I guess he knows as little as I do about these newer diesels. My '82 SD was much easier to work on, but this one's not too bad. Once again, thanks.
