²Apply the parking brake
²Block the wheel that is

parking brake is on the
transmission. Therefore, the
vehicle will not be prevented from
moving when a rear wheel is lifted,
even if the parking brake is
applied. Be sure to block both
directions of the wheel that is
diagonally opposite to the wheel
that is being lifted.
