Troubleshooting
Tool does not engage with the spare tire hoist.
Verify that your vehicle model and year are listed in the compatibility section. Ensure the correct end of the tool is inserted into the hoist mechanism and that it is fully seated.
Spare tire is difficult to lower or raise.
Check for any obstructions around the spare tire or hoist mechanism. Ensure the tool is being turned with consistent pressure. The hoist mechanism itself may require lubrication if it is stiff.

While made of rustproof steel, prolonged exposure to harsh environments may cause surface discoloration. Clean with a soft cloth. For significant rust, a mild metal polish can be used sparingly.
