WARNING
To avoid serious or fatal injury, only
use the K-Line® Engine Stand for its
intended purpose, which is holding,
rotating, and lifting engines within
the WLL and requirements detailed in this manual
and on equipment labels.
To avoid serious or fatal injury, do
not exceed the Working Load Limit
(WLL) of any K-Line® Engine Stand
component.
Do not modify the K-Line® Engine
Stand in any way by welding, heating,
drilling, machining, or grinding.

AdditionAl WArnings:
1. Keep all body members clear of the engine and stand during use. Unavoidable pinch, crush, and
entanglement points exist in the assembly.
2. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can be caught in stand components.
3. Do not use the stand if there are bent, broken, cracked, or damaged components (including label).
4. Exercise extreme caution during mounting of engine, as the engine could shift unexpectedly on its
supports.
5. Exercise caution when walking around the engine stand. Potential trip hazards exist due to the frame

opeRAtING INstRuctIoNs:
sEtup
1. Ensure engine is within the capacity of the stand.
2. Select an appropriate engine adapter for the engine needing service. Ensure that the adapter will
keep the center of mass of the engine within 50.8mm (2’’) of the axis of the stand.
3. Torque socket head cap screws attaching the adapter to the stand to 135 N-m (100 ft-lb).
4. Use manufacturer’s recommended lifting points and a suitable hoist or lifting device to lift the
engine.
5. Use the selected adapter to mount the engine to the stand. Ensure adapter’s bolts are tightened to
the required torque values.
6. Slowly set weight of engine onto stand.
7. Remove lifting devices from engine.

rotating
1. Ensure all workers and tools are clear
of the engine.
2. Firmly grasp the crank handle and
slide the lock collar to unlock the
handle. A magnet in the collar will
retain it in the unlocked position
during use.
3. Rotate the crank handle to rotate the
engine into the desired position.
4. When rotation is complete, turn
handle to align the lock collar’s pins
with the holes in the frame. Slide the
lock collar to lock the handle.
lifting/lowEring
1. To lift, tighten the jack release valve (hand tight) and use the provided handle to pump the jack to the
desired height.
2. Rotate the engine to the desired position as outlined in the section above.
3. Lower the engine to the lowest possible position by carefully opening the jack release valve to achieve
the desired height, and re-tightening the jack release valve.
EmErgEncy instructions
Stand contains some combustible petroleum products. Engines are likely to contain signicant amounts of
ammable liquids and vapors. In case of re, use a class ABC dry chemical or class BC CO2 re extinguisher.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE WATER TO EXTINGUISH FIRE.

mAINteNANce
maintEnancE schEdulE
• Clean worm and gear of dirty/excess grease and reapply molybdenum disulde grease every year
(occasional use) or every 6 months (heavy use)
• Use ISO VG 100 (SAE 30 wt.) non-detergent oil to lubricate the bushings every 6 months (occasional
use) or every 2 months (heavy use)
• Check oil level on hydraulic jack monthly. Lower the jack piston and remove the ller plug. Oil should
be just below the ller hole. Fill as needed with good quality hydraulic oil.
End-of-lifE instructions
The K-Line® Revolving Engine Stand is designed to provide a long life of service. If the need arises
to decommission a stand, contact K-Line® customer service for scrap/disposal instructions for your
location.
stoRAGe RequIRemeNts
Store upright in a cool, dry location. If storing for more than 3 months, clean and wipe unpainted
surfaces with light oil to protect against corrosion. Remove gear cover and coat mating surfaces
of worm and gear with a generous amount of molybdenum disulde grease. Take care not to
contaminate bushings with grease. Replace gear cover.
After long-term storage, re-oil all bushings with ISO VG 100 (SAE 30 wt.) non-detergent oil. Remove
gear cover and wipe o dirty or excess grease from worm and gear. Reapply grease as needed. Replace
gear cover.
