(A) Quick Release Type
First properly install the quick release assembly into the hub. Pick up the quick release assembly and note
the sequence and orientation of parts: adjusting nut, conical spring, skewer, a second conical spring and
finally the quick release lever assembly.
• Remove the adjusting nut and the first conical spring.
• Pick up the front wheel. Examine the sidewall of the tire to see if the tread design is directional. If it is
directional, you will see a forward rotation arrow.
