Roadside Emergencies 4. Loosen each wheel lug nut one-half turn counterclockwise but do not remove them until the wheel is raised off the ground. Note: For F-150 SVT Raptor, install the saddle extension on the jack as shown in the jack usage and storage instructions. 5. Position the jack according to the following guides and turn the jack handle clockwise until the wheel is completely off the ground. WARNING: When one of the rear wheels is off the ground, the transmission alone will not prevent the vehicle from moving or slipping off the jack, even if the transmission is in P (Park). To prevent the vehicle from moving when you change the tire, be sure that the parking brake is set and the diagonally opposite wheel is blocked. If the vehicle slips off the jack, someone could be seriously injured. • Front Note: Use the frame rail as the jacking location point, NOT the control arm. Note: For F-150 SVT Raptor, you must always use the jack saddle extension. 352 2012 F-150 (f12) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)
