I . Quick-release mechanics
A quick-release adjusts the clamping force via the adjusting nut. Turn the nut clockwise to tighten,
and counter-clockwise to loosen.
。
When the adjusting nut is turned clockwise for the quick-release lever to be in the CLOSE position, the nut moves
inwards and clamps the wheel against the frame, thus holding the wheel firmly in the correct location.

and resistance is felt from the lever.
3. Secure the quick-release lever
Hold the fork legs with your fingers, and use your palm to apply sufficient force onto the quick-release lever to
secure it. The CLOSE mark on the lever should face outwards. The lever should be ahead of the fork leg or in parallel
with it as shown below.
