Burstner Aviano i684 Jack and wheel lowering handle location!? (10 Viewers)

[Gingernuts]

Burstner Aviano 2010 ( new to me van ) wanted to check the spare wheel, on a carrier underneath the van ( midships) found the mechanism and a hole in the side skirt to insert a winding handle but can’t find the handle or Jack is it hiding somewhere?

Under the front passenger seat?

Or in rear bed locker, black plastic case, some times bolted to rear inside wall. I would get the wheel down and cleanup the bolt/ mechanism as they are prone to seizing up. Or is it an alko carrier?
Pictures would help

Aye it’s dark o clock now, so will check under the passenger seat tomorrow for Jack and handle, and report back.

Check drivers seat too, my my19 Burstner/Fiat had a slot for the tool box there.

I think all I’ve got is electric gubbins under my drivers seat, but will check today

So I’ve found the Jack and wheel brace kit unused under the passenger seat thanks to @ ontheroadagain.
Still no wiser as to how to wind down the spare wheel as there seems to be no tool to do it!?

 

[Boldly]

If it's a fiat there should be a five sided driver a bit like a straight Allen key. The wheel brace fits on the other end and it winds down on a chain.

 

[Gingernuts]

Well the 5 sided Allen key won’t go through the hole in the body to reach the winder and it’s the wrong size

So I used a ratchet and got the spare wheel down but what a palaver to get it off! I couldn’t imagine doing it in the pishing rain on the side of a French/British/ Spanish motorway

Don't think you're allowed to do it on a motorway in any country.

If the AA can do it…….

But can they?
Definitely not allowed in Spain. Not sure about the others.
