First, remove two 8 mm plugs located on the sides of the rail. Apply the jig and turn the engine clockwise until you hear the gear locking the cams.

For the fuel pump, there are two holes where you can screw in 6 mm bolts, while underneath it is better to place the jig directly (though you can also mark it with a marker before removing the belt).
