Adrian, not sure if you've seen this YT video or not. It's not in english but it's easy enough to understand what they're doing.Was quoted $736 to adjust the valves. Fk that...
Or, you could do like me and use Google Translate on your phone and hold it up to your speaker and translate in real-time. It's not perfect, but it gets the job done. Apparently "candles" are spark plugs in Russian.
6:47 is when he starts discussing valve adjustment. He begins by talking about how to rotate the crankshaft. It's easiest to put it into gear and move the rear wheel with the spark plugs removed and the flywheel inspection hole exposed.
Intake valve clearance should be between 0.13 - 0.23mm and exhaust valve clearances should be between 0.30 - 0.40mm. Only use 8Nm torque on the nuts holding the clearance screws to the valve body. The cylinder "head cover" bolts are 10Nm.
I also downloaded this video for my own use, should it ever disappear off YT. It's too dang valuable a resource IMO, absent any other service manuals or guides.
Mike
