INSTALL ENGINE ASSEMBLY WITH TRANSAXLE
Set the engine assembly with transaxle on the engine lifter.
Note
Place the height adjustment and plate lift attachments under the engine assembly with transaxle.
Servicing an engine assembly with transaxle while it is hanging is dangerous. This can be done only when installing/removing the engine assembly with transaxle to/from an engine stand.
To prevent the oil pan from deforming, do not place any attachments under the oil pan of the engine assembly with transaxle.
Make sure to support the engine assembly with transaxle securely to prevent it from falling.
