1993 Volvo 240
NOTE: The jack in your car comes in two versions. If your car is equipped with the alternate version
(see illustration). the crank handle can be folded out by pressing the knob on the handle downward. To
attach the jack, refer to the illustration on the following page.
To avoid excessive tire wear and rebalancing, mark and reinstall wheels in same location and position
as before removal. To lessen the chance of imbalance, each wheel hub is equipped with a guide stud to
ensure that a removed wheel can be reinstalled in its original position.
pg. 97 Wheel changing
Using the jack
There is a jack attachment adjacent to each wheel location. Hang the jack from the attachment (alt. 1) or
position the jack on the bar in the jack attachment (alt. 2) as shown in the illustrations above the crank
while simultaneously guiding the the base to the ground. The bas of the jack must be flat on a level,
firm, non-slippery surface. Before raising the car check that the jack is still correctly positioned in the
attachment. Now raise the vehicle until the wheel is free of the ground. Unscrew the wheel nuts
completely and carefully remove the wheel so as not to damage the thread of the studs.
