5207
Engine Transverse Bar
with Arm Support
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS…
Remove all contents from box and be sure all components
above are included. First, insert feet with sleeves (#13, 14)
into short tubes welded at the end of both support
beams (#1,2).
NOTE: The widest foot (#13) goes on the largest support
beam (#1).
Slide transfer adapter (#11) over the end of small support
beam (#2) as shown in parts drawing (p. 3) with short tube
toward you and in the up & down position. This transfer
adapter will be used for mounting the transfer bar (#10) when
needed or J-hook (#3) when the transfer bar is not used.
NOTE: The 5207 Engine Transverse Bar may be used
with or without transfer bar, depending on the load
being supported.
If mounting the transfer bar (#10) to assist with an
unbalanced load, insert the adjustable pipe (#6) with the
rubber tip up through the large hole at either end of the
transfer bar (#10) and secure in place with hex bolt (#9) and
wing nut (#8). Do not fully tighten wing nut as height
adjustment may be necessary once the 5207 Engine
Transverse Bar is placed over the engine compartment of
the vehicle.
Then, after determining the length of transfer bar needed to
ensure correct placement of the adjustable pipe (#6) and to
properly assist in supporting the load, insert hex bolt (#5)
down through the transfer bar (#10) and the short tube of the
transfer adapter (#11) to hold transfer bar in place on the
small support beam. Secure bolt with wing nut (#4). Again,
do not fully tighten wing nut (#4), as some length adjustment
may be required once the Engine Support Bar is placed in
support position over engine compartment of the vehicle.
Now, it is time to install the two J-hooks (#3) provided. This
must be done BEFORE placing the 5207 Engine Support Bar
over the engine compartment, because ample space may not
be available once the support bar is in place. Insert one J-
hook up through the bottom of short tube welded on the
center portion of the large support beam (#1) and secure with
barrel hex nut (#7). Run hex nut (#7) all the way down to end
of threads toward the hook portion of the J-hook to hold it out
of the way until needed. Then, locate the best position for the
second J-hook and install in the same manner. The second J-
hook may be installed in either the transfer bar (#10) as
shown in the parts drawing (if the transfer bar is used), or
through the short tube welded on the adjustable transfer
adapter (#11) (if the transfer bar is not used).
Now, the 5207 Engine Support Bar is ready to be placed
over the engine compartment of the vehicle.
• Do not exceed rated capacity of 700 lbs.
• Do not exceed maximum width of 61"
• Never crawl under the suspended load for any reason.
• Be sure engine is supported securely before proceeding.
