If lifting an engine and transmission assembly, it will be necessary to use the lifting eye provided with
the transmission, as the rear engine eye is not designed for the purpose of supporting both. It is good
practise to either not use the rear eye, or to consider it suitable to provide lateral support only. The
transmission lifting point should be such that the load of the transmission is balanced, i.e. no further
load is applied to the front engine lifting bracket. If this cannot be achieved, the issue should be
identified to the Power Systems Applications engineer so that analysis can be arranged.

18.4.1 DEF System handling, control and identification
DEF system components are heavily controlled by legislation, and there is a duty assigned to both the
engine manufacturer and the equipment installer. Components are mostly serialised and it is vital that
the right components are fitted to the right machine, not only by part number but as a kit.
In practise Power Systems will supply engines with a kit of the correct parts. The responsibility of the
equipment installer is to:
- Ensure robust storage and handling processes are in place to ensure the engine and the allocated kit
of components are installed on the same machine.
- Ensure that records are kept to show that engine and kits are correctly handled and installed.
- Allow JCB Power Systems or their agents to periodically inspect the equipment assembly process
and associated records.
