Using the Quick-Release Lever

1. Before installing wheel, check that quick-release levers are in the open (#'s 1 in the drawing below) position. Place the wheel into the dropouts of the fork, and slide the axle in through the fork and through the hub (#2).
   
   

2. Thread the axle in until hand tight.
   
    

3. Rotate the axle lever to the closed position and push until it has clicked in.
   
   

4. Compress fork a few times to ensure that the lower leg is settled into its lowest friction point on the axle.

5. Close both QR Levers by rotating until the backside of lever contacts the lower leg.
   
   

6. Return to the next step of Installing the 36.
