There are a couple of ways to adjust.
1: Use a dial indicator on the valve side of the rocker to check clearance.
2: Measure the adjuster thread pitch then calculate travel per turn. Metric
bolt pitch is measured directly. A 8 mm X 1 mm is a 8 mm dia bolt with 1 mm
spacing of threads. This gives 1mm travel per 1 rotation on the bolt.
Turn the adjuster until it lightly bottoms ( finger tight ) then back off to
the specified fraction of a turn.
