DYNO INSTALLATION
This section will walk you through removing the dyno from the crate and installing
the dyno in the pit.
R EMOVING THE D YNO FROM THE C RATE
You will need to provide equipment capable of lifting a minimum of 2,722 kg.
(6,000 lb.) to move the crated dyno into position in your dyno room. You will also
need a pair of straps capable of supporting the same weight. Dynojet recommends
using two 2-inch x 6-foot single loop style straps. Refer to “Forklift Requirements” on
page 1-8 for more information.
# RECORD
Be sure you record the dynamometer number on the inside cover of this
manual.
1 Remove the crate braces that support the top portion of the crate.
2 Remove the four lag bolts and washers securing the dyno to the crate base using a
9/16-inch socket, open or box end wrench.
3 Route the loop strap through the opening in the dyno frame and through itself.
Pull the strap tight. Do this on each side of the dyno frame.
4 Push the forklift forks together.
5 Place each loop strap over both forks.
Note: The straps must be the same length and meet in the middle. Verify each
loop strap is over both forks to prevent the forks from being pulled apart.
6 Using the forklift, carefully lift the dyno off the crate and move it into position in
your dyno room.
