2.7.3 Wheel bolt Loosening
Wrap the tip of a screw driver with cloth, insert it near the lugs of

Do not try to pry off the wheel cap by hand alone. Take due care
in handling the wheel cap to avoid unexpected personal injury.

Always loosen the wheel bolts before raising the vehicle. Turn the
wheel bolts counter clockwise to loosen as per the crisscross
sequence shown. To get maximum leverage, fit the spanner to the
bolt so that the handle is on the left side. Grab the spanner near the
end of the handle and push down on the handle. Be careful that the
spanner does not slip off the bolt. Do not remove the bolts, but
loosen them by one or two turns.
Do not apply force with your legs (or stand) on the wheel
spanner while loosening/tightening the wheel bolts.
