[For part I, see ibid 43, No. 1, 103-115 (1991: Zbl 0739.53017).] Liftings of vector and tensor fields, esp. Killing fields, on an orientable, complete Riemannian manifold \(M\) to the bundle of frames \(\text{SO} (M)\) are considered. Under certain supplementary conditions on the curvature and on the dimension of \(M\), it is proved that the Lie algebra of Killing fields on \(\text{SO} (M)\) is isomorphic to the three algebras which are defined in an intrinsic way.
