Never bend the eyebolts and the brackets. Only load the eyebolts and the brackets under tension. Remember that the capacity of an eyebolt is less as the angle between the supporting members and the object becomes less than 90 degrees.When it is necessary to remove a component at an angle, only use a link bracket that is properly rated for the weight.
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. Some removals require lifting fixtures in order to obtain proper balance and safety.To remove the engine ONLY, use the lifting eyes that are on the engine.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. Consult your Cat dealer for information regarding fixtures for proper engine lifting.Lifting the Clean Emission Module (CEM) and lifting the Dosing Cabinet
To lift the CEM, use the lifting eyes that are bolted to each corner of the frame. A spreader bar must be used to lift the CEM. Each lifting eye should be attached to the spreader bar by using the attached hook. Chains of equal length should be attached to the eyes of the spreader bar in order to lift the CEM. Damage to the CEM could occur if the CEM is not lifted properly.Lifting pockets are located in the base of the cabinet. To lift the cabinet, attach lifting straps by threading the lifting straps through the pockets.Consult your Cat dealer for additional lifting information.
