2. Turn the lever to 45º and tighten the quick-release nut by hand in a clockwise direction.
3. Closed the lever. Do not tighten the quick-release mechanism as if it was a nut, this will weaken the
coupling and may cause the wheel to work loose.
4. If the lever can easily be turned back to the open position, it means that the correct force has not been
applied to tighten it. In this case tighten the quick release nut up again in a clockwise direction and turn
the lever back again to the close position. If an excessive amount of force is needed to turn the lever,
repeat the previous operation but this time loosens the quick-release nut in anti-clockwise direction.
Repeat the procedure as many times as necessary until the coupling is fastened as required.
5. The quick-release mechanism must be pointing in such a way that it does not interfere with the
scooter’s other accessories.
6. If the quick-release mechanism is faulty, take your scooter to a specialized repair shop.
CAUTION:
If the quick-release mechanisms are not set properly, the wheel or wheels may work loose and
come off completely. You may lose control of the scooter as a result and fall. Make sure that the quick-release
mechanisms are properly set and closed before using the scooter.
Checking the quick-release mechanisms is properly set:
Lift the scooter up and bang the top of the wheel. The wheel should not come out, work loose or move from
one side to the other.
Make sure that the quick-release lever cannot rotate parallel to the tire.
Checking the wheels is in line.
Turn both wheels and check the rim is in line with the frame and the brake blocks. If the rim does not rotate
