4. Adjust Quick Release Cam Lever
To adjust the quick release, hold the

FULLY CLOSED
To properly close the quick release
and secure the rear wheel in the
dropouts, confi rm the axle is fully
inserted in the dropout, while
maintaining the wheel in this
position, rotate the quick release
toward stroller and into the FULLY
CLOSED position.
When properly closed, the curve of
the quick release will be pointing
toward the dropout and angled
slightly toward the center of the
stroller. To generate enough
clamping force it is necessary to wrap
your fi ngers around the dropout
while closing the quick release lever.
The proper force required to close
the quick release lever should leave
a visible imprint in the palm of your
hand.
It takes considerable force to
securely clamp the wheel. If you
are able to completely close the
quick release without wrapping
your fi ngers around the dropout
and the quick release lever does
not leave a visible imprint in the
palm of your hand, the tension is
not adequate. Rotate the lever to
the FULLY OPEN position and turn
the tension adjusting nut a quarter
turn clockwise and repeat the
closing process.
