ASSEMBLY, OPERATION, PREVENTITIVE MAINTENANCE
1. FEATURES
The 1020T 500kg Engine Support Bar accepts a wide variety of engines and transmissions. This engine support bar comes
with everything needed to perform work on your engine or transmission, including a steel beam, standing block and brackets,
adjusting screw, rubber-moulded cushion, steel chain with handles, hooks and hardware. The rubber padded support legs
prevent slips as well as damage to paint. The engine support is designed only to support the engine so that parts or
mechanisms underneath the engine, which normally have limited access, can be reached.
2. BEFORE USE
Prior to each use conduct a visual inspection by checking for abnormal conditions, such as cracked joints and damaged,
loose, or missing parts.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Refer to the vehicle owner’s manual of the engine to be lifted to determine the lifting points.
2. Park the car on a flat surface, apply the parking brakes and chock the wheels.
3. Never try to move a running or hot engine. Allow sufficient time for the engine to cool down entirely before beginning
any operations.
4. Loosen Spreader Knobs (2) and adjust Standing Block (8) and Bracket (9), to locate Rubber Cushions (10) over the gutter
lips adjacent to the fenders of the car.
5. Centre the engine support bar assembly over the engine and tighten the Spreader Knobs (2)
6. Attach the Chains (12) to the engine at the appropriate lifting points, then loop the Chains securely to the flange on the
bottom of the Adjustable Screw Hooks (11).
7. Turn the Screw Hook Handles (5) clockwise until the Chains are taut and the engine is held securely.
8. Loosen engine mounts. Turn the Screw Hook Handles (5) at 1/4 clockwise turns until the entire engine’s weight is
supported by the chains. Continue to loosen and disconnect the engine mounts.
9. Never work on the engine while it is supported only by the Engine Support Bar. Moving the engine whilst it is
suspended only by the Engine Support Bar can cause the Engine Support Bar to fail or shift, resulting in serious personal
injury and/or property damage.
10. To prevent accidents, lower and reconnect the engine when finished working. The Engine Support Bar is not intended
to be used as a long-term suspension device.
11. Clean, then store the tool indoors out of children’s reach.
4. STORAGE
This Engine Support Bar should always be stored in a dry location on a level surface.
5. MAINTENANCE
Replace or repair damaged parts. Use recommended parts only. Non-authorised parts may be dangerous and will
invalidate the warranty.
Keep the Engine Support Bar clean for best and safest performance.
6. SERVICE & REPAIR
Any Engine Support Bar found damaged in any way, or found to be worn or operates abnormally should be removed from
service until repaired by an authorised service agent. Owners and / or operators should be aware that repair of this product
may require specialised equipment and knowledge. Only authorised parts, labels and decals shall be used on this equipment.
Annual inspection of the engine stand is recommended and can be made by an authorised repair facility to ensure that your
equipment is in optimum condition and that the equipment has the correct decals and safety labels specified by the
manufacturer.
