OPERATION
1. Determine the location of the two engine support bolts on your vehicle. Then place the Engine
transverse bar directly over these two bolts.
2. Adjust the boom extension (#2) to ensure that both legs (#13 & 14) are sitting inside the fender of
the engine compartment. CAUTION: If the inside fender lips are more than 61" apart, the Engine
Transverse Bar must not be used. Do not extend past the designated marking (61") as
overextending this unit may compromise the 700 lb. Capacity. This could cause the Engine
Support Bar to collapse, resulting in personal injury or property damage.
3. Adjust to ensure the support arm (#10) is in correct position. The rubber tip of the adjustable leg
(#6) should be on a flat, reinforced surface capable of supporting the weight of engine. Tighten
both wing nuts (#4 & 8) to secure the adjustable leg (#6) and support arm (#10).
4. Lower the threaded hooks (#3) to appropriate position. Ensure that the hooks are directly over the
engine support bolts or brackets; therefore the engine does not swing when vehicle is
disassembled.
5. Attach the looped ends of the two 1/8" braided steel cables (#12) to the engine support bolts on
the engine and loop middle of braided cables over hooks. If the engine being supported is
equipped with engine lift brackets, hook the hooks (#3) directly into engine lift brackets for extra
protection. Note: Use only fasteners rated Grade 5 or higher as engine support bolts.
6. Tighten the barrel hex. nuts (#7) on both hooks until cables are snug or hex. nuts are tight against
support bar.
7. Double check that engine is properly supported before disassemble the vehicle.
MAINTENANCE
Periodically inspect the Engine Transverse Bar. Ensure all parts move freely. To help prevent rust,
wipe clean and/or blow dry after each use. If rust appears, sand affected area and cover with suitable
utility paint. Store the Engine Transverse Bar in a clean, dry area.
