200 ENGINE DISASSEMBLY
Page 4-3
MOUNTING ENGINE IN STAND
The engine is heavy (approximately 2,300 lbs.
[1043 kg] wet). Stay out from under the engine
when it is being lifted. Failure of the lifting
device could result in serious injury or death.
Make sure to use lifting equipment that is
rated at a capacity greater than the weight of
the engine.
The fuel and oil filter elements, as well as the
Centri-Max™ assembly, must be removed before
mounting the adapter plate to the engine.
Engine stand, Kent-Moore tool number J 29109,
and adapter plate J 38048, are recommended to
safely support the engine during disassembly and
assembly procedures.
When servicing an E7 engine with an isolating oil
pan arrangement, avoid using an engine stand
that supports the engine on the oil pan rail while
the oil pan is still installed. Damage to the oil pan,
pan gasket or the isolators may result. If this type
of stand must be used and the oil pan is to remain
installed, support the engine on the pads
provided at each corner of the cylinder block as
shown in Figure 6-56.
