CAUTION!
The winch mechanism is designed for use with the
winch T-handle only. Use of an air wrench or other
power tools is not recommended and can damage the
winch.
2. Assemble the winch handle extensions to form the
spare tire hook, and pull the wheel spacer from under
the vehicle.
3. Turn the compact spare tire so that the valve stem is
down, and place the tire into the compact spare
tire/cover assembly. Slide the wheel spacer through
the center of the wheel and compact spare tire/cover
assembly, so that the two retainer tabs snap out and
engage the compact spare tire cover on the opposite
side.
CAUTION!
The compact spare tire/cover assembly must be used
when the compact spare tire is stored. Failure to use
this cover could drastically reduce the life of the
compact spare tire.
WARNING!
Verify that both retainer tabs of the wheel spacer
have been properly extended through the center of
the wheel and compact spare tire/cover assembly.
Failure to properly engage both retainer tabs could
result in loss of the compact spare tire and cover
assembly, which will cause vehicle damage and may
cause loss of vehicle control and serious personal
injury.
