Operate the jack from the front or the rear of the

CAUTION!
Before raising the wheel off the ground, make sure that
the jack will not damage surrounding truck parts and
adjust the jack position as required.
5.
Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw clockwise.
Raise the vehicle only until the tire just clears the
ground surface and enough clearance is obtained to
install the spare tire. Minimum tire lift provides
maximum stability.
WARNING!
Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make the
vehicle less stable. It could slip off the jack and hurt
someone near it. Raise the vehicle only enough to
remove the tire.
