1996 Volvo 960

WARNING!

The jack attachment must engage the bar in the jack attachment (A). The car's weight must not rest

on the jack's attachment (B).

Be sure the jack is on a firm, level, non-slippery surface.

Never allow any part of your body to be extended under a car supported by a jack.

Use the jack intended for the car when replacing a wheel. For any other job, use stands to support

the end of the car being worked on.

Apply the parking brake, select position P (automatic transmission).

Block the wheels standing on the ground. Use rigid wooden blocks or large stones.

The jack should be kept well-greased.

Installing the wheel


Clean the contact surfaces on the wheel and hub. Lift the wheel and place it on the hub. Make sure that
you align the wheel with the guide stud on the wheel hub prior to installation. Install the wheel nuts
crosswise and tighten lightly. The conical side of the nuts should face the wheel. Lower the vehicle to
the ground and alternately tighten the nuts to 63 lbs. (85 Nm). Install the wheel cap.

Correct tightening order for wheel nuts
