the cam lever from rotating increases clamping force; turning it counterclockwise
while keeping the cam lever from rotating reduces clamping force. Less than
half a turn of the tension adjusting nut can make the diff erence between safe
clamping force and unsafe clamping force.
WARNING: The full force of the cam action is needed to clamp the
wheel securely. Holding the nut with one hand and turning the lever like a
wing nut with the other hand until everything is as tight as you can get it
will not clamp a cam action wheel safely in the dropouts. See also the fi rst
WARNING in this Section.
B. Removing the Front Wheel
1. Disengage the brake’s quick-release mechanism to increase the clearance
between the tire and the brake pads.
2. Move the cam lever from the locked or CLOSED position to the OPEN position.
3. Loosen the tension adjusting nut enough to allow removing the wheel from
the dropouts.
• You may need to tap the top of the wheel with the palm of your hand to
release the wheel from the front fork.
C. Installing the Front Wheel
1. Move the cam lever so that it curves away from the wheel. This is the OPEN
position.
2. With the steering fork facing forward, insert the wheel between the fork blades
so that the axle seats fi rmly at the top of the fork dropouts. The cam lever
should be on rider’s left side of the bicycle.
3. Holding the cam lever in the ADJUST position with your right hand, tighten
the tension adjusting nut with your left hand until it is fi nger tight against the
fork dropout.
4. While pushing the wheel fi rmly to the top of the slots in the fork dropouts,
and at the same time centering the wheel rim in the fork move the cam
lever upwards and swing it into the CLOSED position. The lever should now
be parallel to the fork blade and curved toward the wheel. To apply enough
clamping force, you should have to wrap your fi ngers around the fork blade for
leverage, and the lever should leave a clear imprint in the palm of your hand.
NOTE:
If the lever cannot be pushed all the way to a position parallel to the fork
blade, return the lever to the OPEN position. Then turn the tension adjusting nut
counterclockwise one-quarter turn and try tightening the lever again.
