1. Put the tire on the ground at the rear of the vehicle,
with the valve stem pointed down and to the rear.
2. Pull the retainer through the wheel.
3. Put the chisel end of the wheel wrench, on an angle,
through the hole
in the rear bumper and into the hoist

the tire
is raised against the underside
of the vehicle.
You will hear two “clicks” when the tire is secure,
but pull
on the tire to make sure.
