DANGER
Quick-release skewer and
brake disk collide
wrong
Front wheel: The quick-release skewer must be
positioned on the opposite side to the brake disc
(wheretted).If the quick-release skewer is on
the same side as the brake disc, there is a risk
that they can clash and lock the front wheel (see
diagram), which can cause a serious accident.
Allquick-releasesystemsmustbecorrectlytightenedbeforeyouseto.
Otherwise the components can loosen – if that happens while riding you
could fall o, resulting in serious injuries.
Removing the front wheel
1. Remove the pedelec battery.
2. Open the axle lever by folding it by
180˚. You will now usually be able to
see the word ‘OPEN’ on the inside of
the lever.
3. Undo the adjustment nut by turning it
slightly anticlockwise.
