1 Record the axle setting value (4) indicated by
the directional arrow (3).
2 Loosen the axle nut securing screw (2) with a
2.5 mm hex key by approx. four revolutions,
but do not remove the screw completely.
3 Turn the quick release lever to the open
position and loosen the axle by approx. four
revolutions.
4 Press the axle inward from the side of the open
lever. This pushes out the axle nut securing
screw so that you can turn it out of the way.
5 Push the axle further forward and turn the axle
nut clockwise to increase the lever tension or
anti-clockwise to reduce the lever tension.
6 Reinsert the axle nut lock and tighten the screw
to 0.9 Nm (8 in-lb).
7 Repeat the steps for installing the axle to check
proper installation and correct adjustment.
