tire beads. For this reason, check rims
for damage at regular intervals. The
rim flanges must be checked for wear
before a tire is mounted. Remove burrs,
if any.
Changing Wheels
Move vehicle to a level area which is a
safe distance from the roadway.
1.
Set parking brake and turn on
hazard warning flasher.
Warning!
The jack is designed exclusively for
jacking up the vehicle at the jack
tubes built into either side of the
vehicle. Use the jack only to lift the
vehicle during a wheel change. Never
get beneath the vehicle while it is
supported by the jack. Keep hands
and feet away from the area under
the lifted vehicle. Always firmly set
parking brake and block wheels
before raising vehicle with jack.
2. Move selector lever to position
"P" and turn off engine.
3. Prevent vehicle from rolling away by
blocking wheels with wheel chocks
or sizable wood block or stone (not
supplied with, vehicle). When
changing a wheel on a hill, place
chocks on the downhill side blocking
both wheels of the other axle. On a
level road, place one chock in front of
and one behind the wheel that is dia-
gonally opposite to the wheel being
changed.
4.
Unfold wrench, loosen but do not
remove the wheel bolts yet.
Do not disengage parking brake
while the vehicle is raised. Be certain
that the jack is always vertical when
in use, especially on hills. Always try
to use the jack on level surface. Be
sure that the jack arm is fully
inserted in the jack tube. Always
lower the vehicle onto sufficient
capacity jackstands before working
under the vehicle.
