Operating
To remove an auto or truck engine with transmission
intact, first uncouple the transmission and remove
motor mount bolts. With the Engine Leverer hooked
to an overhead hoist above the engine, attach the
L-shape connections at the end of the four (4)
chains (choose one of the two holes provided) to the
engine head bolts – two at front, both sides, and two
at rear, both sides. Using the engine hoist, take up
slack in chain carefully. Lift a few inches and check
load balance. To reach the desired angle for load
balance, adjust the position of the movable fulcrum
in the beam by turning the 1“ hex adjusting nut at
end of the worm shaft with a ratchet wrench. Then
carefully lift out the engine and transmission. By
turning the handle one direction or the other, the
suspended engine and transmission can the be
tipped only enough to remove. Reverse the above
steps to reinstall repaired engine transmission. For
this and other types of loads, make sure all
connections are tight and secure before operating the hoist.
The following operational instructions are recommended to prevent serious personal injury or
damage.
Never use this Engine Leverer with an engine host having a capacity of less than 1 ton!
