Operating Instructions

Mounting Engine

  1. Remove the Pin (4) from the Column (5)
  2. Determine the thread type and length of bolts (not included) needed to thread into the engine block. Use grade 8 bolts that are long enough to fit through the Arms and thread as deeply as possible into the engine block.
  3. Align the Mounting Arms (9) with four mounting bolt locations on the engine.
  4. Place the bolts (not included) through the Mounting Plate (8) side and securely tighten them into the engine. The bolt heads must press against the back of the Arms: if needed, use flat washers (not included) as spacers.
  5. Tighten the Bolts (10) and Nuts (6) that hold the Mounting Arms (9) to the Mounting Plate (8) securely.
  6. Slowly lower the hoist/engine crane (sold separately) until all the engine’s weight is held by the stand.
  7. Safely release the engine from the hoist/engine crane.
  8. Slowly rotate the engine to the desired angle and insert the Pin (4) into the top of the Column (5).

Rotating Engine

  1. While holding onto the Handle (2) and the engine to prevent it from accidental rotation, remove Pin (4).
  2. Use assistance to rotate the engine to the desired angle and insert the Pin (4) into the top of the Column (5).

Removing Engine

  1. With assistance, rotate the engine to its initial position.
  2. Secure the engine properly to the crane. Use the crane to support all of the engine’s weight directly overhead, but do not start lifting the engine stand.
  3. Once the engine is properly supported by the crane, remove the bolts securing the Mounting Arms (9) to the engine.

Maintenance and Servicing

  1. With assistance, rotate the engine to its initial position.
  2. Secure the engine properly to the crane. Use the crane to support all of the engine’s weight directly overhead, but do not start lifting the engine stand.
  3. Once the engine is properly supported by the crane, remove the bolts securing the Mounting Arms (9) to the engine.
