Abstract
A shim attaching and detaching surface has a sectional portion with a smaller diameter than a base circle of a cam surface in a state in which the shim attaching and detaching surface of a cam is located on a tappet roller, and therefore the tappet roller and an arm member can be moved upward. Since an inner side of a top surface of a tappet guide is inclined, if the arm member is tilted along this inclination, one end of the arm member can be raised, and a clearance is formed in a space from a tappet shim. Accordingly, by inserting a slim plate-shaped or rod-shaped jigfrom the clearance, the tappet shimcan be attached and detached.
