Default help adjusting valves in OHC engine?

could anyone, like hondamech, walk me threw adjusting valves on an overhead cam engine? im not working on a honda engine, its actually an 85 lt230, but i know that you guys on the honda forum are top-notch mechanics and tinkerers!

i have adjusted the valves on my pushrod foreman 450, but i am warry of blindly tearing apart the head on my 230.
