3.With the lever about halfway between the OPEN position and the CLOSED position (Fig. 5), tighten the quick release adjusting nut on the opposite end of the quick release axle until
4.Place the quick release lever in the palm of your hand and move the lever in a motion as shown in Figure 7. Move the lever into the CLOSED position (Fig. 9). At the halfway closed position of the quick release lever, you should start to feel some resistance to this motion.
5.If the lever is moved to the CLOSED position with little or no resistance, clamping strength is insufficient. Simply return the lever to the OPEN position, tighten the quick release adjusting nut further and close the lever, testing again for resistance. When the quick release device is properly tightened, and clamped to the closed position, the clamping force is adequate to cause metal into metal engagement (embossing) of the fork surfaces.
•Do not tighten the quick release by using the quick release lever like a wing nut (Fig. 8). This will not result in sufficient force to hold the wheel in place.
6.Orient the quick release lever so that it does not interfere with any other jogging stroller part and so that it will not become accidentally snagged by obstacles in the path of the jogging stroller (Fig. 9).
