	Removing
	Risk of death  caused by vehicle slipping or toppling off of the lifting platform.	Align vehicle between columns of vehicle lift and position four support plates at vehicle lift support points specified by vehicle manufacturer.	AS00.00-Z-0010-01A
1	Hoist vehicle with lifting platform until wheels are free
		Model 211 Models 124, 129, 140, 168, 170, 202, 208, 210, 215, 220, 230, 240, 414	AR00.60-P-1000T
2	Pull off wheel covers	Vehicles with wheel covers
3	Unscrew wheel bolts and remove wheel-and-tire assemblies	Model 164, 240: Remove complete wheels with wheel lift

	Measure
4	Measure depth of tread of all tires and note measured values on the maintenance sheet	Vehicles with spare tire: Perform measurement and all following checks on the spare tire as well. Measure depth of tread at point of greatest wear. Perform measurement at outside, inside and center of tread. Minimum depth of tread 1.6 mm. For safety reasons, tires should be replaced before the minimum depth of tread is reached: Conventional summer tires at approx. 2 to 3 mm tread depth Summer tires of PAX system at 3 mm tread depth Winter tires at approx. 4 mm tread depth

	Check
5	Check tires for signs of damage and make sure that they are in good condition		AP40.10-P-4051Z
	Information on tires/rims		AH40.10-P-9411-01A
6	Check wheel bolts	The round contact shoulders on the lug bolts must be free of oil and grease. Replace wheel bolts with damaged thread, worn zinc coat on the radius seat or corroded radius seat otherwise these may shear off. Clean wheel bolts if necessary.
7	Check rims	Check for: Dirt to ensure that radius seats are free of oil and grease Damage to centering, radius seats and rim flanges Corrosion of contact surfaces Clean rims if necessary.
8	Check wheel hub, brake disk bowl at rim contact surface, and wheel bolt thread for contamination and corrosion	Contaminated or corroded wheel bolt thread must be cleaned or recut. Remaining contaminants or corrosion in the wheel bolt thread prevent reaching the necessary preload force of the wheel bolt, despite reaching the specified torque. The wheel hub should be replaced if the wheel bolt thread is damaged. Clean corroded surfaces with a wire brush or emery cloth.
	Install
9	Apply corrosion protection to wheel hubs and wheel contact surfaces (cross-hatched area)	Long-life grease	*BR00.45-Z-1001-06A
10	Change round wheel-and-tire assemblies on front and rear axles	If necessary, and only on vehicles without mixed tires. Retain running direction of wheels, as otherwise handling performances and comfort may be impaired and tire wear increased.
11	Slide on wheel-and-tire assemblies, and tighten the wheel bolts	Model 164, 240: Mount wheels with wheel lift.
		Observe the tightening sequence (1 to 5).
		Except model 164 and model 210 with code (979) Special protection version	*BA40.10-P-1001-01A

12	Lower vehicle
13	Correct tire pressure for all wheel-and-tire assemblies	In the event of tire pressure loss, determine cause and replace valve, tire or rim. On vehicles with tire pressure monitor: Install only valve protection caps made of plastic in order to avoid corrosion.
14	Fit wheel covers	Vehicles with wheel covers
	Check
15	Check expiry date of TIREFIT tire sealant	Vehicles fitted with TIREFIT	AP40.10-P-4054R
	TIREFIT tire sealant		AH40.10-P-0001-01A
16	Activate the tire pressure monitoring system	On vehicles with tire pressure monitor, wherever possible: Only when changing a wheel, tire change or change in tire pressure: ↓ Perform adjustments to the control system
