The ES200 together with its associated adaptors supports or raises the engine from underneath during maintenance operations without the use of a trolley jack or conventional over-engine support beam. It allows unimpeded access to the engine from above and also permits safe movement of the vehicle whilst the engine is raised. Vehicle specific adaptor sleeves mount onto the vehicle structure and the base unit is then attached to the sleeve. The engine is raised by a screw adjusted pad. The unit is ideal for rapid and safe cambelt changes, engine mount replacement, transmission removal, etc. The adaptor sleeves shown below are not supplied with the base unit and must be ordered separately.
