To lower the vehicle, turn the jack handle extension
counterclockwise with the handle, making sure the

Use only the wheel nut wrench to tighten the nuts. Do
not use other tools or any additional leverage other than
your hands, such as a hammer, pipe or your foot. Make
sure the wrench is securely engaged over the nut.
Tighten each nut a little at a time in the order shown.
Repeat the process until all the nuts are tight.

portions of your body and all other persons
around will not be injured as the vehicle is
lowered to the ground.

may fall off, which could cause a serious
