ENGINE LIFTING PROCEDURE

RG7784

UN–11NOV97

CAUTION: The only recommended method for
lifting the engine is with JDG23 Engine Lifting
Sling (A) and safety approved lifting straps (B)
that come with engine. Use extreme caution
when lifting and NEVER permit any part of the
body to be positioned under an engine being
lifted or suspended.

Lift engine with longitudinal loading on lifting
sling and lifting straps only. Angular loading
greatly reduces lifting capacity of sling and
straps.

NOTE: If engine does not have lifting straps, universal

straps can be procured through service parts
under part numbers JD-244-1 and JD-244-2.

1. If not equipped, install lifting straps and torque to

200 N•m (145 lb-ft).

2. Attach JDG23 Engine Lifting Sling (A) to engine lifting

straps (B) and overhead hoist.

IMPORTANT: Lifting straps are designed to lift the

engine and accessories such as
radiator, air filter and other small
components. If larger components,
such as power take-off, transmission,
generator air compressor... etc, are
attached to engine, the lifting straps
provided with engine or through parts
channel are not intended for this
purpose. Technician is responsible for
providing adequate lifting devices under
these situations. See machine manuals
for additional information on removing
engine from machine.

3. Carefully move engine to desired location.
