owner/user responsibiliTy
The owner and/or user must have a thorough understanding
of the manufacturer’s operating instructions and
warnings before using this engine stand. Personnel
involved in the use and operation of equipment shall
be careful, competent, trained, and qualified in the safe
operation of the equipment and its proper use when
servicing motor vehicles and their components. Warning
information should be emphasized and understood. If
the operator is not fluent in English, the manufacturer’s
instructions and warnings shall be read to and discussed
with the operator in the operator’s native language
by the purchaser/owner, making sure that the operator
comprehends its contents.
Owner and/or user must study and maintain for future
reference the manufacturer’s instructions. Owner and/
or user is responsible for keeping all warning labels
and instruction manuals legible and intact. Replacement
labels and literature are available from the manufacturer.
assembly insTrucTions
Assemble as shown in the diagram. First, install the casters
to the front and rear axles using the hardware items 1, 2
& 4, being sure to insert bolts from bottom side of caster
plate. Then attach the center beam assembly to the axle
assembly using hardware items 5, 11 & 12. Next attach
one end of brace, item 15, to the center beam using
hardware items 14, 11 & 12. Make sure position of brace is
as shown in diagram.
Make sure to secure the worm box, item 28, to the post,
item 21, using hardware item 29, before placing post onto
base assembly. Stand the post on the base and attach by
passing bolt, item 14, through middle hole B in the base
bracket and the hex shaped mount welded to the bottom
of the post. Then pass pin, item 8, through the upper hole
A in the base bracket and just in front of the post. Secure
pin with latch provided. Now, insert pin, item 8, through
the rear hole C including both brackets and secure with
latch provided. The last step is to attach the end of the
brace, item 15, to the post using pin and latch, item 8.
To fold engine stand, simply remove the three pins, fold
brace forward, and then fold post forward. The pins can
be stored in open holes.
inspecTion
Visual inspection should be made before each use of the
engine stand, checking for damaged, loose or missing
parts. Each stand must be inspected by a manufacturer’s
repair facility immediately, if accidentally subjected to an
abnormal load or shock. Any stand which appears to be
damaged in any way, found to be badly worn, or oper-
ates abnormally MUST BE REMOVED FROM SERVICE until
necessary repairs are made by a manufacturer’s autho-
rized repair facility. It is recommended that an annual
inspection of the stand be made by a manufacturer’s autho-
rized repair facility and that any defective parts, decals or
warning labels be replaced with manufacturer’s specified
parts. A list of authorized repair facilities is available from
the manufacturer.
mainTenance
Apply motor oil to support base wheels and casters. Apply
chassis grease to mounting head hub. Rotate head to
distribute grease. Keep both the grease fitting and the
gear teeth well lubricated.
operaTing insTrucTions
NOTE: Do not mount engine to mounting plate unless all
three pins, item 8, are in place and secured with latches
provided according to Assembly Instructions.
Drain oil and coolant and remove flywheel from engine
before mounting. Mount engine as directed in proce-
dures which follow. Refer to engine service manuals and
technical bulletins when mounting engines. Lift engine
(block) with crane or hoist until even with head of engine
stand. Bolt through adjustable fingers to back of block at
bell housing mounting holes. Fasten securely to mounting
plate. Slowly lower crane or hoist so that the engine stand
supports full weight of engine. To check engine balance,
carefully loosen hex bolt at back of rotating head, making
sure stand is secured from tipping, and turn handle to
rotate engine. If balance is not satisfactory, rotate engine
to its original position and raise with crane or hoist just
enough to take weight off the stand. Loosen bolts on
adjustable fingers and realign so that weight is evenly
distributed. Tighten all bolts securely and recheck balance.
To remove an engine from stand, attach a crane or hoist
and raise engine just enough to take engine weight off
stand. Carefully remove bolts attaching fingers to engine.
Be aware that there will be a slight movement of stand as
total engine weight is transferred to crane.
The engine may be rotated by turning the worm crank.
Grease before each use. The stand can be folded down
for easy storage and transportation by removing 3 pins,
item 8.
