Lifting and Jacking

Lifting and Jacking
Safety
•Recommended procedures for lifting, jacking and
towing must be strictly ob served to ensure personal
safety.
• Always use a vehicle hoist, ramp or pit for working
beneath the vehicle in preference to jacking.
• Never rely on a jack to supp ort a car independently, use
axle stands or blocks carefu lly placed at jacking points
to provide rigid support.
• When working beneath a vehicle, chock wheels as well
as applying handbrake.
• Ensure vehicle is standing on firm, level ground before
jacking or lifting.
• Check lifting equipment has adequate capacity for load
being lifted and is in full working order.
Jacking Points
This vehicle jacking points are at positions shown.
May also be jacked on the front subframe front crossmember
Always use a jack with a rubber contact pad. Avoid use of
jacks with sharp contact pads which would damage floor
pan Always chock the opposite road wheels as well as
applying the handbrake when using a hydraulic jack.
To prevent body distortion, av oid single point or one side
jacking with the tunnel shear panel removed.
Lifting
Workshop Hoist
Use of a workshop hoist is recommended for all operations
where vehicles must be raised. Follow manufacturers
instructions. If using an adjustable arm type, ensure lifting
pads are correctly positioned at the four jacking points
before lifting.
Workshop Jack
To avoid any danger of bodywork damage when using a
hydraulic jack, the vehicle must only be lifted at the jacking
points.
Stands
When carrying out work (other than a wheel change) which
requires a wheel to be raised, a stand must be used, located
at the jacking point, to provide a secure support for the
vehicle.

Road Wheels and Tyres (04.04)
Suspension (04.00)
May 2007 Workshop Manual 4-4-3
Maintenance
Factory installed tyres and road wheels are designed to
operate satisfactory when inflated to the recommended
inflation pressures (Refer to ’Inspection and Verification’,
page 4-4-4). The recommended pressures apply to vehicle
loads up to and including the full-rated load capacity.
Correct tyre pressures and driving technique have an
important influence on tyre life. Heavy cornering,
excessively rapid acceleration and unnecessary sharp
braking increase tyre wear.
Replacement tyres should follow the recommended:
The use of any other size or type may seriously affect:
Wheels need to be renewed when:
Safety
Tyre Replacement and Wheel
Interchanging
When replacement of tyres is required it is preferable to
install a complete vehicle set. S hould either the front or rear
tyres only show excessive wear, new tyres must be installed
to replace worn ones. Under no circumstances interchange
tyres from side to side, front to re ar or vice versa as individual
tyre wear produces unique characteristics depending upon
their position. If the position is changed after wear has
occurred, the performance of the tyre will be adversely
affected.
New tyres must be balanced before installing to the vehicle.

• Speedometer and Odometer calibration • Vehicle ground clearance
• Tyre clearance between
body and chassis
• Wheel bearing life
• Brake cooling
• Impact damaged
• Heavily corroded
• Porous • Wheel stud holes or seats
become damaged
• They have excessive radial or lateral runout.
ENSURE THAT TYRES ARE MOUNTED WITH THE
SIDEWALL MARKING ‘OUTSIDE’ SHOWING ON THE
OUTER SIDEWALL FACE.
CORRECT TYRE ROTATIONAL DIRECTION IS CRITICAL.
WA R N I N G
A TYRE AND WHEEL MUST ALWAYS BE CORRECTLY MATCHED. WIDER OR NARROWER TYRES THAN
RECOMMENDED COULD CAUSE DANGER THROUGH
SUDDEN DEFLATION.
WA R N I N G
WHEN CHANGING A WHEEL, MAKE SURE THAT THE VEHICLE CANNOT MOVE. ALWAYS APPLY THE
PARKING BRAKE AND SELE CT THE TRANSMISSION
PARK POSITION (AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION ONLY).
WA R N I N G
NEVER RUN THE ENGINE WITH ONE WHEEL OFF THE GROUND, FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN CHANGING THE
WHEEL. THE WHEEL RESTING ON THE GROUND MAY CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO MOVE.
WA R N I N G
ALWAYS TIGHTEN THE WHEEL NUTS TO
SPECIFICATION. TOO TIGHT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE,
TOO LOOSE MAY ALLOW TH E WHEEL TO BECOME
DETACHED.
WAR NI NG
DO NOT MIX DIFFERENT TY PES OF TYRES ON THE
SAME VEHICLE. HANDLING MAY BE SERIOUSLY AFFECTED RESULTING IN LOSS OF CONTROL.
WAR NI NG
USE ONLY WHEELS AND WHEEL NUTS SUPPLIED BY
ASTON MARTIN. AFTER MARKET WHEELS OR WHEEL
NUTS MAY NOT INSTALL OR FUNCTION CORRECTLY
AND COULD CAUSE INJURY OR DAMAGE.
Caution
When a new tyre is installe d, always renew the tyre
valve.
