Review

Torin T32001

Torin T32001 is an engine lifter with 2 ton (4000 lb) lifting capacity. You can find similar products made by other hoist manufacturers. This engine hoist has extra tough steel parts that can handle 2 on heavy engines, transmissions, gearboxes, motorcycle parts, boat engines and others parts with ease. Torin T32001 has got a foldable design, legs can be folded upwards and boom can be folded down and the tool becomes much more compact and will take less space when stored.

Frame

The frame of Torin engine lifter, as well as boom and legs are made a from high tensile steel, which is quite thick and can handle heavy usage. The frame has two support plates on the side that gives the hoist a better stability and increases durability when lifting heavier engines. This tool is made with a pin locking system. Legs of the hoist can be folded in upward position and secured in place with simple locking pins, and can be lowered back down and secured into working position with the same pins. Remember to always secure legs of the hoist with pins, especially in working position before applying load to the hoist, or else lifter might fail. On the back of the main tube you will find a handle with rubber grips that can is used for pushing the hoist.

Jack

Torin T32001 hoist is equipped with a hydraulic jack that is able to handle up to 8 ton heavy loads. Again, same as with other hydraulic engine hoists, Torin jack works with the same principle. Close the bleed valve before lifting the load. When the valve is closed place the pump winch into a holder on base of the jack and start pumping, this will increase the oil pressure into the cylinder and load will start to lift. If load is not lifting, check if the bleed valve is fully closed. The valve must be closed in a clockwise direction. To lower the load simply turn the valve counter clockwise. This must be done with a caution as lowering of load is going to be faster than lifting of load.

Legs and wheels

Torin engine lifter has got two foldable legs. Both legs can be folded in up position for storage and down position for working. There are pins on both sides of legs that secure legs so they do not come out when stored or in a lifting process. It is important to put the locking pins into legs before lifting or else the hoist might fail and the hoist and object lifted might get damaged. The height from the ground to the top of the leg is approx 7.5 inches (19 cm) so legs should go under majority of cars without any problems.

Torin T32001 engine hoist

This engine lifter has got total of 6 casters. 4 casters are located below the main frame of the hoist and 2 casters are located on front of the legs.
