Reattach any cables disconnected before (such as light cables),
otherwise they can get caught in the spokes. If that happens while you
are riding the bike you could be thrown off and seriously injured.

*
Removing the front wheel
1. Remove the pedelec battery.
2. Open the quick-release skewer on the
front wheel by turning it down 180˚.
3. Hook the quick-release skewer into the slot and turn it anticlockwise
until the quick-release axle protrudes from the axle hole about 1 cm.
4. Lift out the front wheel and remove the quick-release axle.
IMPORTANT
Detach all cables from the wheel (e.g. lighting cables), otherwise you
could tear them.
If your bike is fitted with rim brakes you must release them.
Alternatively, you can deflate the front tyre. Otherwise you
may not be able to remove the front wheel.
5. Remove the front wheel.
Quick-release skewer
For 2. Open the quick-release skewer
Replacing the front wheel
1. Apply a thin layer of grease to the quick-release axle.
2. Push the wheel into the front forks
and align with the axle holes.
3. Reinsert the quick-release axle.
4. Move the quick-release skewer to the open position.
5. Hook the quick-release skewer into the slot and turn it clockwise.
This will screw the axle in the thread. Make sure that your wheel is
correctly centred.
6. Close the quick-release skewer by swinging the skewer back 180˚.
DANGER
It should be so hard to close the quick-release skewer that you need
to use the balls of your hands (120 N: corresponds to a weight force of
12 kg). You should have the mark of the lever imprinted on your hand.
Otherwise it could open when you are cycling, which could lead to the
wheel becoming loose and cause you to fall.
