Prob need a large flathead screwdriver and/or allen keys, feeler gauges and spanners. There will be a manual you can download here if you do a search, theres a thread somewhere with loads of manuals somewhere. That'll give you the valve gap setting.
This vid show generally how to do it.....

Chaos is my co-pilot.

Thank you, I did a search and came away with .004 myself.
