HOW TO USE:
- Preparation: Position the wheel dolly near the wheel assembly you intend to remove or install. Ensure the work area is clear and level.
- Lowering the Arms: Use the hydraulic release mechanism to fully lower the dolly's lift arms to their lowest 2-inch position.
- Positioning: Carefully roll the dolly under the wheel assembly. Adjust the lift arms inward or outward as needed to cradle the tire securely.
- Lifting: Use the hydraulic pump handle to slowly raise the lift arms, lifting the wheel assembly off the ground or hub. Lift just enough to clear the necessary components.
- Securing: Once lifted, wrap the 6-foot safety chain around the wheel assembly and secure it to the dolly's frame to prevent movement during transport.
- Transport/Removal: Carefully roll the dolly with the secured wheel assembly to its desired location (e.g., tire changer, storage area). For installation, reverse the process, using the leveling screw for precise alignment with the vehicle hub.
- Lowering: Once the wheel is in position or on the ground, slowly release the hydraulic pressure to gently lower the wheel assembly.
