On the crank rotate untill you are at tdc cylinder #1-the dot on the crank gear is about at the 1 o'clock spot. The cam gear has 2 sets of dots, alighn the pair of dots on cam gear with single dot on crank. The ip gear has 2 dots. Aline these with the single dot on cam gear.
Make sure you are at tdc #1 and not tdc cyl#6. You can pull the valve cover and verify this.
