Operation Section
Product Lifting
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.
To obtain the correct balance for lifting an application,
adjust the chain lengths
Lifting eyes are designed and installed for the
specific engine arrangement. Alterations to the lifting
eyes and/or the engine make the lifting eyes and the
lifting fixtures obsolete. If alterations are made,
ensure that proper lifting devices are provided.
There are several different designs of lifting eyes.
The following sections give examples of lifting eyes
on the engine, engine, and aftertreatment and factory
installed radiator.
Consult your Perkins distributor for information
regarding fixtures for proper engine lifting.
