Front Wheel - Dynacraft MOUNTAIN BIKE Owner's Manual

C

6. FRONT WHEEL

Before installing the front wheel, ensure that the brakes are
opened enough to allow the tire to fit through them. On side-pull
equipped bikes, you may have to loosen the cable anchor bolt
(see Figure 31) in order to allow the tire to fit through. On Linear
Brake equipped bikes, squeeze the brake arms together by hand,
and lift the cable out of the carrier to open up the brakes (see
Figure 33).
To install the front wheel, insert the wheel in the dropouts, place
the locking washer on the axle, line up the tab on the retainer clip
with the corresponding hole in the drop out. Place the locknut
on the axle after the retainer clip and tighten the lock nut with (B)
Adjustable Wrench (see Figures 28 & 29).
WARNING:
Put the wheel in the center of the fork and tighten
both nuts.
WARNING:
Failure to obey these steps can allow the front
wheel to loosen or dislodge while riding. This can cause injury or death to
the rider or to others.
