Specification

Assembly

Refer to Figure 1 overleaf.

Figure 1 illustrates the components and assembly of the engine stand. Key parts include wheels, pins, bolts, nuts, washers, mounting arms, support struts, main post, and base frame, as detailed in the parts list below.

Parts List (Referencing Figure 1)

1. Bolt the large castor wheels (9) to the rear-most mountings on the main frame and to the legs using M8x20 bolts (4), M8 washers (3), M8 lock washers (2) and M8 nuts (1). Bolt the small castor wheels (14) to the forward mountings on the main frame using M8x14 bolts (10), M8 washers (3), M8 lock washers (2) and M8 nuts (1).
2. Assemble the legs to the frame using the Ø16x110 pins (11). Lay each leg into the open channel and insert the first pin into the hole nearest the rear of the frame. This will be the folding leg pivot. Retain the pin with a 'R' clip (15). Lock the leg in the down position by inserting a second Ø16x110 pin (11) into the hole nearest the open end of the channel and retain with a 'R' clip (15).
3. Bolt the main upright to the cross member between the open channels using two M14x100mm bolts (8), M14 washers (7), M14 lock washers (6) and M14 nuts (5). DO NOT fully tighten the nuts at this stage.
4. Take the two support struts and loosely bolt them to the top of the main upright using a M14x100 bolt (8). Insert two M14 bolts (8) through the angled parts of the main base in the holes adjacent to the rear square section ensuring that the bolt heads are on the outside of the frame. Slide the bottom of each support strut over the end of each bolt in turn and secure with the nuts and washers provided. Fully tighten all the nuts and bolts holding the main upright and struts.
5. Take the engine mounting plate and insert it through the tube at the top of the main upright. Rotate the plate until one of the holes in the inner tube is aligned with a hole in the outer tube and insert the locking pin (13).
6. Take the handle and insert it into the hole in the part of the turning plate tube protruding through the top of the main upright.
7. Attach the adjustable mountings to the turning plate using M14x60 bolts (12), M14 washers (7), M14 lock washers (6) and M14 nuts (5).
8. To fold up the legs remove the 'R' clips (15) from the Ø16x110 pins (11) furthest from the rear of the frame and pull out the pins. Fold the legs up. Always retain the legs in the upright position by re-inserting the pins (11) through the holes in the frame directly in front of the folded legs. Retain the pins (11) with the 'R' clips (15).
