wheels which will remain on the ground.
Use heavy wooden blocks or large

wrench, or pull it off by hand.

5. Loosen the wheel nuts ½–1 turn anti-

clockwise with the wheel wrench.

6. There are two jacking points on each

side of the car. Crank the foot of the
jack down so it is pressed squarely on
the ground. Check that the jack sits in
the anchorage as illustrated and that the
foot is positioned vertically under the
anchorage.

7. Lift the car so that the wheel is free.

Remove the wheel bolts and lift off the
wheel.

Installation

them and the road.
