LIFTING HEAVY CRANKSHAFTS SAFELY

LIFTING HEAVY CRANKSHAFTS SAFELY
We found placing cranks, whether light or heavy, can be difficult to do on a hot tank pressure washing stand. And this is even harder to lift after the crank is washed and hot. To protect the machined surfaces and make it safer, pick up and move crankshafts in an upright position. We use pieces of pipe or tube with the inside diameter needed as a safe locking devise along with a small serpentine belt. You can have one for dirty cranks and one for the clean cranks.
