The diagrams we have is not very clear and I could not find any better than those I have here.

After installation of the timing chain, you should not crank the engine without testing it.

Remove the spark plugs and manually crank the crankshaft slowly and ensure there is no restrictons at any point. You need to crank the engine at least 360 dregrees to be sure and it is best to crank until the timing marks comes back to position to verify that all marks are correct.
