Timing Device

YES, the bolt that secures the TD is Reverse Threaded. (As in Lefty Tighty,
Righty Loosy)

A Flywheel locking device,Once you've set the crank...AND Zip (or Wire Ties)
securing the chain to the Camshaft Sprocket will maintain basic Timing.The
Injection Pump is secured by the Locking Device.['Must remember to R+R
the Chain Tensioner.]'Must remember to remove the locking device from the
IP ,OR 'orrible things result.

These (For what little the Gnomes divulge) are the TD R+R instructions for
the OM606:

GSXR suggests using the OM603 directions for TD removal since the OM606
directions are so sparse.

You'll note the directions suggest using metal strips to isolate the chain for TD removal.
(Some of GSXR's pictures,you might ask him how he secured the Chain @ the TD)
