Always refer to the proper illustrations for the
correct placement and jack-up points for your
specific vehicle model and jack type.
Carefully read the caution label attached to
the jack body and the following instruc-
tions.
1. Loosen each wheel nut one or two turns by
turning counterclockwise with the wheel nut
wrench.Do not remove the wheel nuts
until the tire is off the ground.2. Place the jack directly under the jack-up
point as illustrated so the top of the jack
contacts the vehicle at the jack-up point.
cUnder some conditions there will not be suffi-
cient clearance to use the primary rear jacking
point on vehicles equipped with 15 inch
wheels. If this occurs, use the alternate jack-up
point for vehicles equipped with 15 inch
wheels. When using the alternate jack-up
point, position the jack on the axle as close as
possible to the tire that needs to be changed.
The jack should be used on firm and level
ground.
