6.
If you have a wheel cover, use your fingers to
carefully pull the wheel cover from the wheel. Then
remove the flat tire.
7.
Remove any rust or
dirt
from the wheel bolts,
mounting surfaces
and
spare wheel.
Rust or dirt on the wheel, or on the parts to
which it
is
fastened, can make the wheel nuts
become loose after
a
time. The wheel could come
off
and cause an accident. When you change
a
wheel, remove any rust or dirt from the places
where the wheel attaches to the vehicle. In an
emergency, you can use
a
cloth or
a
paper towel
to do this; but be sure to use
a
scraper or wire
brush later, if
you
need to, to get
all
the rust or
dirt
off.
