I tried to use the Volvo jack to remove a wheel from my 2008 S60 today. The
jack doesn't seem to fit the rod in the jacking point on the car. Does
anyone know of a good website with illustrations on how to use that jack? It
seems simple but doesn't fit right.

My s80 was the same. And it took a couple of try's. The jack u shape piece
is smaller on purpose. The weight of the car pushes the rod into that u
shape to be secure so it does not sit loose and susceptible to falling off
the jack.

Thanks, now I understand what's going on. I'll try again today. Good thing I
tried it at home, in the driveway, instead of trying to figure it out in the
rain some night on the side of the highway.
