CAUTION:
{
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the parts to which
it is fastened, can make wheel nuts become
loose after time. The wheel could come off and
cause an accident. When you change a wheel,
remove any rust or dirt from places where the
wheel attaches to the vehicle. In an emergency,
you can use a cloth or a paper towel to do this;
but be sure to use a scraper or wire brush later,
if needed, to get all the rust or dirt off. See
Changing a Flat Tire on page 5-84.
8. Remove any rust or dirt
from the wheel bolts,
mounting surfaces
and spare wheel.
9. Install the spare tire.
CAUTION:
{
Never use oil or grease on studs or nuts.
Because the nuts might come loose. The
vehicle's wheel could fall off, causing a crash.
10. Put the wheel nuts
back on with the
rounded end of the
nuts toward the wheel.
Tighten each wheel
nut by hand. Then use
the wheel wrench to
tighten the nuts until
the wheel is held
against the hub.
