Before removing the engine you must disconnect the clutch cable and all electrical connections from the engine. You must also remove the upper and lower engine guards, exhaust manifold, et cetera. I will post several step-by-step instructions for the engine rebuild later in this thread.

After removing the perimeter frame beneath the engine, you are ready to remove the engine bolts and lower the engine. I supported the engine on my 3-ton Husky jack before I loosened the final engine bolts, removed the swingarm bolt, and lowered the engine.

Several years ago I made a wooden board attachment for my Husky jack. This wooden board makes it easy for me to support the engine during engine removal and installation. I used this wooden attachment to remove and replace the engines in both my Zongshen ZS200GY-2 (Sierra), and my Zongshen RX3.
