Changing Wheels

To change a wheel, use the following pro-
cedure:
1) Clear all passengers and luggage from
the vehicle.
2) Remove the jack, tools and spare
wheel from the vehicle.
3) Loosen, but do not remove the wheel
nuts.
4) Jack up the vehicle.
5) Remove the wheel nuts and wheel.
6) Before installing the new wheel, clean
any mud or dirt off from the surface of
the wheel and hub with a clean cloth.
Clean the hub carefully; it may be hot
from driving.
7) Install the new wheel and replace the
wheel nuts with their cone shaped end
facing the wheel. Tighten each nut
snugly by hand until the wheel is
securely seated on the hub.
