Quickrelease
Quick releases are clamping brackets which
attach components like a screw, however their
clamping force stems from tightening the lever
without tools. The clamping force is activated by
closing the lever. The clamping force is adjusted
by turning the counter nut when the lever is open.

the
quick release lever for that purpose. Fully

The quick release is only securely
closed when you need the power of the
ball of your hand to close the lever.
The adjustment nut of the quick release fastener
must be tightened when the tightening force is not
high enough, e.g. when the seat does not stay in
position. To do this, the quick release lever must
be open.
