OWNER'S MANUAL
CONSEQUENCES OF NOT AVOIDING HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
WARNING
Failure to read this manual completely and thoroughly, failure to understand its OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS, SAFETY WARNINGS,
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS and comply with them, and failure to comply with the METHODS TO AVOID HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS could
cause accidents resulting in serious or fatal personal injury and/or property damage.
SETUP
PLEASE REFER TO THE EXPLODED VIEW DRAWING IN THIS MANUAL IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY PARTS.
1. Install the front wheels (#25) in the front of left (#23) and right legs (#24) with the bolts (#16), washers (#17) and nuts (#13) provided.
2. Assemble the middle swivel casters (#1) to the bottom frame (#7) with the bolts (#15) and nuts (#6) and tighten.
3. Assemble the rear swivel casters (#3) to the bottom frame (#7) with the bolts (#4), spring washers (#5) and nuts (#6) and tighten.
4. Loosely assemble the upright mast (#11) to the bottom frame (#7) with the bolts (#12) and nuts (#13). Make sure the extended end of the
receiver tube at the top of the upright mast is pointing toward the front of the legs (#23) and (#24).
5. Loosely assemble one end of mast braces (#9) to the inboard sides of the frame side tubes with the bolts (#8) and nuts (#13). Loosely
assemble the opposite ends of the mast braces (#9) to the upright mast (#11) with the bolt (#8) and nut (#13). Tighten all hardware
mentioned in steps 4 and 5.
6. Align the two holes in the legs (#23) and (#24) with the corresponding holes in the bottom frame (#7) and secure then in the frame with the
pins (#2) and R-Clips (#14). Make sure to put the left and right legs in the intended sides of the bottom frame (#7).
7. Install the tube of the rotating plate (#20) in the top tube of the upright mast (#11) and lock it in place with the pin (#10).
8. Secure the fingers (#18) to the rotating plate (#20) by inserting the bolts (#19) with washers (#26) through the loops in the fingers and then
passing the bolts through the holes in the plate (#20). Secure the bolts to the plate with the washers (#17) and nuts (#13).
9. Install the handle (#22) through the holes in the rotating plate tube (#20) and secure it by pushing on the handle cap (#21) on the handle.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This is the safety alert symbol used for the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS section of this manual to alert you to potential personal
injury hazards. Obey all instructions to avoid possible injury or death.
1. Consult the vehicle or engine manufacturer for service manuals and/or technical bulletins that provide information on suggested
engine mounting tips, proper size and type mounting bolts and the engine's center of balance. The engine's center of balance will
have to be aligned with the rotational axis of the engine stand's mounting head.
2. Drain oil and coolant and remove clutch bell housing and flywheel from engine before mounting. Attach an engine lifting bar or sling
to the engine and secure the bar or sling to a shop crane or hoist. Slowly lift the engine from its compartment, making sure no other
vehicle components, wires or hoses obstruct the free movement of the engine. Raise the engine high enough so its center of
balance is close to the rotational axis of the stands's mounting head.
3. Make sure the four mounting head fingers are loosely connected to the mounting head plate. Secure the four mounting head fingers
to the bell housing end of the engine with the appropriate bolts and washers. Reposition the mounting head, fingers and engine so
the engine's center of balance is within one inch of the mounting head's rotational axis. Tighten all bolts to a sufficient torque
requirement that prevents any slippage.
4. Slowly lower the crane or hoist so the engine stand supports full weight of the engine. To check engine balance and secure setup
of the engine to the stand, slowly rotate the engine by turning the handle. If balance or setup are not stable, rotate the engine to its
original position, raise the crane or hoist so the weight of the engine is removed from the stand and make the correct adjustments.
After adjustments are made, tighten all bolts. This adjustment procedure may have to be duplicated several times until correct.
After the setup is balanced and secure, the lifting bar or sling can be removed from crane or hoist.
5. To remove the engine from the stand, connect the lifting bar or sling to the crane or hoist and raise the engine high enough to take
the weight off the stand. Carefully remove the bolts that connect the four mounting fingers to the engine. Be aware there will be a
slight movement of stand as total engine weight is transferred to crane or hoist.
