Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of death or serious

cause a serious accident.

The oil or grease can cause the wheel nuts to loosen, causing a seri-
ous accident. Remove any oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel
nuts.
Have the wheel nuts tightened with a torque wrench as soon as possi-
l
ble after changing wheels.
