Weaken all nuts of a wheel.
Always weaken wheel nuts before a car raising.
To weaken wheel nuts, rotate them counterclockwise. to receive the maximum effort, establish a key on a nut so that the handle appeared on the right, as shown in the drawing above. Take a wrench near the end of the handle and pull for the handle up. You watch that the key did not come off a nut.
At this stage do not remove a nut but only unscrew them approximately half way.
