Manitou Hex Lock QR15 (e.g. Manitou Mattoc and
Marvel)
The Manitou Hex Lock system
(e)
can be adjusted
without tools and locked with a quarter turn after wheel
mounting.
In contrast to the QR15-axle there is no need to unfold
the lever and to unscrew the axle with difficulties. The
only thing you have to do is to unfold the quick-release
lever, to move it by a quarter turn and the axle is free.
The special feature is located at one end of the axle: the
two pins which are designed to lock the axle in a respec-
tive guide in the drop-out.
Bring the front wheel into the right position between
the drop-outs. Insert the axle with the Hex Lock
quick-release lever open from the right through the
drop-out and the hub
(f)
. The marking on the axle
must show towards the fork crown, i.e. upwards.
The hex must slide into the left fork leg.
Once the axle is fully inserted, turn the axle until the two
pins engage. Close the quick-release subsequently
(g)
by applying the force usually necessary for closing a
quick-release.

888 CR 180)
Mounting wheels
If your bike is equipped with a Marzocchi 20mm Taper-
wall thru-axle system
(h)
, put the front wheel into the
fork and mount the rotor in the brake caliper.
Bring the front wheel into the right position between the
drop-outs. Insert the thru axle from the left through the
fork and the hub.
Tighten a little the counterpart of the axle/bolt cap with
an Allen key. Then tighten by using a torque wrench to a
torque of 14 to 16 Nm.
After mounting the axle compress the fork a couple of
times to make sure the axle is not jammed.
Lift your MERIDA bike a little and spin the front wheel.
The front wheel must rotate freely in the area of the tire,
the rim and the rotor.
Finish by tightening the four Allen bolts at the front of the
fork by using a 4-mm Allen key to a torque value of 5 to
7 Nm. This will ensure the clamping of the axle.
