Installing Wheel on Vehicle


Previous design:
- The security wheel nut is installed opposite the valve.

From September 1995:
- The security nut is no longer installed in a special position in production.
- In after-sales service, the previous practice for tire fitting may be continued.
- Irrespective of the position of the security wheel nut, it may be useful to mark the bolt opposite the valve before removing the wheel.
- This will ensure that optimum balancing results (achieved using finish balancers) will not be affected by tire fitting.
