10. Ensure that all weight is spread evenly across all sections, making sure that
all wheels/castors are on level ground and that the assembly is sitting
square and true. Tighten all nuts and bolts.
11. Store the operating handle in the socket provided when not in use.
MOUNTING THE ENGINE TO THE STAND
1. The mounting plate has four
adjustable arms with long bolt
holes. This is where the engine will
mount to the engine stand, using
suitable bolts which are
compatible with threaded holes
in the engine block.
2. If the bellhousing bolts are too
short, obtain bolts that have the
same diameter and thread pitch.
Ideally, the bolts must be long
enough to go through the engine
mounting arms and go at least
one inch into the engine block.
3. Lift the engine with your engine
hoist and move it towards the
engine stand.
4. Remove the locating pin, then
remove the mounting plate
assembly from the engine stand.
5. Using compatible bolts, pass them
through the mounting arms and bolt them to the engine where the
transmission was mounted to the block. Mount two arms low down on the
engine and bolt the other two as high as possible.
6. Adjust the arms on the engine stand mounts so that the centre of the
mounting plate is aligned with the centre of the engine crankshaft. By
doing this you can ensure that the engine is balanced on the stand.
Tighten the bolts securely.
7. Lower the engine until the spindle is at the same level as the engine stand.
Slide the spindle of the mounting plate into the engine stand. Replace the
locating pin to secure the mounting.
8. Slowly lower the engine so that the engine stand starts to support the
weight of the engine. Double-check all fasteners and be sure that the
engine is secure.
