parts to which it is fastened, can
make wheel nuts become loose
after time. The wheel could come
off and cause an accident. When
changing a wheel, remove any
rust or dirt from places where the
wheel attaches to the vehicle. In
an emergency, a cloth or a paper
towel can be used; however, use
a scraper or wire brush later to
remove all rust or dirt.

Never use oil or grease on bolts
or nuts because the nuts might
come loose. The vehicle's wheel

the wheel bolts, mounting
surfaces, and spare wheel.
