To change a tire
To change a tire is something most people are not keen on. Here we try
to make it easy and as interesting for you. So that the next time you
are involved in this fix, you will be out of it in a jiffy.
After you have parked your car safely, put a couple of bricks or stones beneath the tires to make sure that it does not roll down. Bring your jack, spare wheel and lug wrench to the work area. Loosen the nuts without having jacked up the car, to prevent the wheel spin on you. Turn counterclockwise to loosen the nut until it comes off. Next jack up the car. Remove the old wheel now. After having taken out the lug nuts, pull the wheel with your weight forward to prevent from falling backward. Adjust well the spare wheel in the threaded shafts so that they fit. Then tighten the nuts in the proper order. Lower the jack so that the tire rests on the ground. Replace the hubcap or the plate. Voila! You are ready to drive again. |
