We do this with our ASK13 since 25 years. I'll try to find some pictures

and send them to you via private mail.

I have seen one K13 hoisted by a pair of contoured wooden beams below
each
wing, I think they were covered with thick carpeting, and used nylon
webbing to a central lift point. Remember... The CofG will be further
back towards the trailing edge without a pilot in the seat.

Thinking on from the above.. It was more likely that the beams were on top
of the wing, with one strap under the fuselage at the rear of the wing and
the other strap under the fuselage before the wing. Again using carpeting
for added protection of the paint.
