Changing a wheel
Before raising the vehicle, ensure that all the
precautions listed at the beginning of this
section have been observed. Also, ensure that
the wheel chock is correctly positioned, as
described previously.
In some markets, vehicles fitted with alloy
wheels have one locking wheel nut fitted to
each wheel. Refer to ’Locking wheel nuts’ later
in this section before changing an alloy wheel.
• Use the wheel brace to slacken the wheel
nuts half a turn anti-clockwise.
• Raise the vehicle until the tyre is clear of
the ground, and remove the wheel nuts
and wheel (DO NOT damage the surface of
alloy wheels (if fitted) by placing them face
down on the road).
• On vehicles fitted with alloy wheels, use an
approved anti-seize compound to treat the
wheel mounting spigot to minimise the
tendency for adhesion between the wheel
and the spigot. Ensure that no oil or
compound comes into contact with the
brake components. If, due to an
emergency situation, this treatment is not
practicable; refit the spare wheel for the
time being, but remove and treat the wheel
at the earliest opportunity.
• Fit the spare wheel and lightly tighten the
wheel nuts, ensuring they are firmly
seated. DO NOT fully tighten whilst the
tyre is clear of the ground.
WARNING
When fitting a wheel, ensure that the mating
faces of the hub and wheel are clean and
free from rust - an accumulation of dirt or
rust could cause the wheel nuts to become
loose and result in an accident.
• Lower the vehicle and remove the jack and
wheel chock.
• Fully tighten the wheel nuts. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN by using foot pressure or
extension bars on the wheel brace, as this
could overstress the wheel studs.
• REMEMBER to disengage the differential
lock and change to ’H’ (high range) before
driving.
• Finally, check the tyre pressure and wheel
nut torque at the earliest opportunity, see
’General data’.
WARNING
After wheel changing, always secure tools,
chock, jack and spare wheel in their correct
storage positions.
