Always inspect lifting eyebolts and all other lifting equipment for damage before performing any lifting. Never bend the eyebolts and the brackets. Never perform product lifting if components are damaged. |
Illustration 1 | g03274116 |
Typical example (1) Front lifting eye (2) Rear lifting eyes |
Note: The engine assembly has three lifting eyes, refer to illustration 1.
Use a hoist to remove heavy components. Use an adjustable lifting beam to lift the engine. All supporting members (chains and cables) should be parallel to each other. The chains and cables should be perpendicular to the top of the object that is being lifted.
Lifting eyes are designed and installed for specific engine arrangements. Alterations to the lifting eyes and/or the engine make the lifting eyes and the lifting fixtures obsolete. If alterations are made, ensure that correct lifting devices are provided. Consult your Cat dealer for information regarding fixtures for correct engine lifting.
