the wheel is drawn into place against the
underside of the vehicle. Continue to rotate

click three or four times. It cannot be
overtightened. Push against the tire several
times to ensure it is firmly in place.

The winch mechanism is designed for use with the

power tools is not recommended and can damage

the jack turn-screw counterclockwise until the
jack is snug.
