I used to have mine. If I remember correctly, on the crank sprocket, each key hole represents 2 degrees.

use the +4 keyway on the crank socket, but the tdc dot is on the +6 keyway, so make sure the cam dot lines up with the small dot above/offset of the keyway on +6.

Here you go:

By the way, +4 does not mean 4 degrees of advance on the cam, it's way more than that. That's simply how rollmaster represents that mark on the crank gear. Think about it... look how much you're turning the crank gear as compared to how far the cam rotates when you do that. That's a bit more than 4 degrees.
