Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this quality product. To minimize the risk of injury we urge that our clients
take some basic safety precautions when using this device. Please read the operation instructions carefully and make sure you have understood its content.
Keep these operation instructions safe.
Description
Balancers are used as accessories for workshop cranes, rope hoists, or chain hoists and help with the
exact positioning or alignment of loads, e. g. motors.
The risk of tilting during installation and removal is kept as low as possible and allows safe and easy
work. Thanks to a worm drive provided with a hand crank, including 4 chains with safety hooks, the
balancer can be adjusted lengthwise.
The 900 kg balancer is placed between a pulley block and an unwieldy, heavy load, e. g. a complete
car engine with gearbox. The device is designed in such a way that it lifts the object to be lifted as
efficiently as possible and at the same time gives the user the opportunity to turn and position the object.

Notes to the user
•
•
The owner/user must have read and understood the instructions for use of the device before he
is allowed to use it. Instructed personnel should be careful, qualified, trained in and familiarized
with the safe handling of the work equipment used when working on engines and their components. Warnings should be read and understood.
The owner/user must keep the instructions for use in a safe place so that he can refer to them
at any time. Be sure to request a replacement if the operation manual has been lost.
Control/inspection
•
•
•
•
Check the device before each use in order to be able to replace damaged or missing components in good time.
The device must be checked immediately by a specialist if an unexpected error occurs.
If you suspect that one of the carrier chains could be damaged, the device must immediately be
taken out of service until the repair has been carried out by a specialist and the device has been
approved again.
It is recommended to have the device checked by a specialist once a year.
Use
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
To remove a car or truck engine including the gearbox, the gearbox must first be disengaged
and the fastening screws of the motor must be loosened.
Then position the balancer directly above the motor.
Attach the carrier hooks of the four carrier chains to the head bolts of the engine – two at the
front (left and right) and two at the rear (left and right).
Now slowly and carefully lift the motor with the help of the balancer. After a few centimetres it
should be checked whether the load is still in balance. To readjust the balance, the position of
the movable axis of rotation is changed with the aid of the hexagonal crank.
Then the motor including the gear is very carefully removed from the housing and the motor is
turned to the left or right by moving the handle.
To reinstall the motor, follow the previous instructions in reverse order.
With these and other types of loads, it must be ensured that all connections and carriers are
securely connected to one another before using the goods train.
