nuts and take off the
¯at tire.
6. Remove any rust or dirt
from the wheel bolts,

{CAUTION:
Rust or dirt on the wheel, or on the parts to

become loose after a time. The wheel could
come off and cause an accident. When you
change a wheel, remove any rust or dirt from
the places where the wheel attaches to the
vehicle. In an emergency, you can use a cloth or
a paper towel to do this; but be sure to use a
scraper or wire brush later, if you need to, to get
all the rust or dirt off.
{CAUTION:
Never use oil or grease on studs or nuts. If you
do, the nuts might come loose. Your wheel
could fall off, causing a serious accident.
