lower edge and align it with the central support
column.

crossbar and into the support column assembly,
tightening it to secure.
2. Attach the front crossbar (C) to the central arm:

7. Assembly Instructions
– 9 –
EN
Important: Before attaching any load, read and
understand all the safety instructions listed in this
manual. ALWAYS ensure that the xing bolts used to
attach the load are of an appropriate length and grade.
1. Raise the load with an appropriate hoist and position
the engine stand nearby.
2. Remove the mounting plate handle (H) and locking
pin (P) and slide the mounting plate (G) away from the
stand.
3. Pass the xing bolts through the back of the
mounting arms and screw them into the mounting
sockets on the load.
Important: Bolt the bottom two arms low on the load
and the top two arms as high as possible. The bolts
must be long enough to be wound at least 25mm into
the load when mounted. Draper Tools recommends
metric grade 8.8 bolts for mounting engines.
4. Adjust the mounting arms so that the centre of the
mounting plate is aligned with the centre of the
engine crankshaft and tighten all bolts securely.
5. Lower the load until the mounting plate stem aligns
with the socket on the support column assembly (A)
and slide it into place.
6. Insert the mounting plate handle and locking pin to
secure the mounting plate in place.
7. Use the hoist to lower the load and carefully transfer
the weight to the engine stand.
8. Check that all attachments are secure and that the
stand can support the load without intervention, then
disengage the hoist.
9. To rotate the load:
a. Remove the locking pin and use the mounting
plate handle to turn the load into the correct
position.
b. Reinsert the locking pin when the load is in the
required position; four positions are available.
