1.2 Engine Mounting Brackets
The standard brackets, provide mounting points which are 76mm (3 in.) below, and parallel with, the crankshaft
centre line. The brackets may be used to mount the engine directly on the engine bearers, but for all applications
it is recommended that exible engine mounts are used.
The holes for the holding down bolts are slotted, to allow for some movement during the nal stages of
alignment. Where ne alignment is not necessary, for example when a exibly jointed drive shaft is used, the
bolts on all four corners of the engine should be positioned at the end of the slot - all either fully in or fully out.
This will provide additional security in the xing arrangements.
