Removal of the power unit from the car - methods and safety measures

Before starting directly removal of the power unit from the car, execute some preparatory procedures.

Extremely the great value has presence of well equipped worker of a platform on which there should be enough place for placing and car storage. The platform should be enough spacious for placing on it of the car, a strong workbench / the assembly stand, and also necessary materials and the equipment. An optimum variant is the big garage or a covered workshop. Simply equal platform with an asphalt or concrete covering as a last resort will approach.

It is necessary to take care also of the equipment of a place for storage of components removed from the engine, the tool and other materials. Is better for this purpose the easy folding rack with wide enough regiments will approach.

Before to start dismantle of the power unit, carefully wash up an impellent compartment and an external surface of the power unit that will help to preserve in purity and an order the used tool.

For carrying out of the subsequent repair the engine should be removed from the car in gathering with a transmission. As extraction of the power unit is made by its lowering from an impellent compartment downwards, the car is necessary for lifting highly enough over the earth and it is reliable to fix on support. A necessary condition of successful work is also presence лебедки, the A-shaped frame or other suitable elevating equipment. Track, that the lift and a rigging corresponded under the load-lifting characteristics to total weight of the power unit (the engine with transmission). Do not forget about necessity of strict observance of requirements of safety precautions regulations.

If engine extraction is made by the mechanic-fan for the first time, it is necessary to get support of more skilled companion. In time the submitted council will allow to save time and to reduce to a minimum risk of reception of a trauma or damage of components/equipments. In the course of extraction of the unit from the car there is a set of situations when separate procedures should be executed simultaneously that frequently it is very difficult to make forces of one person.

Try to plan all sequence of actions in advance. Prepare necessary tools and the equipment. To number of the adaptations essentially facilitating performance of forthcoming works and considerably raising level of their safety, the complete set of wrenches and replaceable face heads with approaching (it is desirable ratchet) a drive, pair of strong wooden blocks, and also enough of rags and solvent for removal of traces of fuel, oil and a cooling liquid concern powerful тележечный a jack with a hydraulic drive. At absence in a private use of the elevating equipment before to take лебедку for rent, try to execute beforehand all necessary spadework for the purpose of the maximum reduction of term of rent, and, hence, and the material inputs connected with it.

Prepare for that you should refuse using the car on refusal of using the car for long enough time. Performance of a part of the procedures demanding high qualification of the personnel and application of the special equipment, it is necessary to charge to experts of car-care centre. Remember that automobile repair shops usually have very much a loading busy schedule that is why it will be reasonable to see to it and agree about terms of performance of your order in advance.

Perform works without hurrying up, in the organised manner, try not to break elementary safety precautions regulations!
