Remove the rear wheel.

 

Hold the end of the removable axle

Adjust the length L of the removable axle by turning the nut

 



The length is correctly adjusted if the removable axle engages 
correctly when fixing the wheel and wheel has just minimal 
clearance.

i

  The wheels must be exchanged (left to right side and vice versa) 

after adjusting both removable axles. The adjustment must now 
be checked or carried out again to ensure the wheels can be 
switched.
