DATE: February, 1989
SUBJECT: HUB CAP REMOVAL/POSSIBLE BREAKAGE
MODELS: 1986-89 505
Removing a hubcap using the method shown in the owner's manual may result in breakage. Please instruct your customers and personnel to use this revised method of removal.
1986-87-88 505 GL HUB CAP REMOVAL:
Insert vehicle's jack handle into one of the two slots (1) opposite the valve slot (2), making sure that the "T" of the jack handle is lodged behind the hub cap's circlip. This will cause the circlip to compress when pulling on the jack handle, thereby releasing the hub cap. If the "T" is not lodged behind the circlip, the pulling of the jack handle against the plastic may cause the hub cap to break.
1989 505 DL HUB CAP REMOVAL:
To remove hub caps on DL models, carefully open the valve cap access door and gently pull the hub cap off. DO NOT USE A SCREWDRIVER AS IT MAY DAMAGE THE HUB CAP.
