Checking Valve Clearance 603 engine

Not finding the answer using "search" I need some guidance. I want to check the valve clearance on my '87 300TD. I purchased the CD set from Fastlane yet have not found enough info to do the procedure. I have a low level ticking (not clatter) when the engine is not under load.

What should the clearances be?
Is the crank nut 27mm?
What is an "ALDA"? I have seen so many references to it yet still haven't figured out what it is, where it is, nor what it does.

Still loving this car and accumulating parts/tools!!!
