CAUTION!
A
If your SCOTT bike is equipped with quick-releases, be sure to lock the
frame to an immovable object together with the wheels when you leave it
outside. Anti-theft protection!
NOTE!
I
To be on the safe side you can replace the quick-releases by special locks.
They can only be opened and closed with a special, coded key or an Allen
key. If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact your SCOTT dealer.
DANGER!
g
After wheel mounting test the brakes in stationary. You should reach the
pressure point of the brake before the brake lever reaches the handlebars.
In the case of hydraulic brakes pump them, if necessary, until you reach a pre-
cise pressure point.
DT Swiss RWS quick-release system
The RWS system from DT Swiss (d-f) is a special type of quick-release for front
and rear wheels. The RWS system is compatible with all standard drop-outs.
Make sure during the assembly that the axles, the hubs, the drop-outs of the
fork and the rear frame are clean. Clean the components with an absorbent
cloth, if necessary, by using water and a little detergent.
In case you do not succeed in adjusting and fixing the wheel, as described, con-
tact your SCOTT dealer.
Wheel mounting
Put the wheel into the fork or the rear frame and mount the rotor simultaneous-
ly, if necessary, in the brake calliper. Make sure that in the area of the rear wheel
the chain runs over the sprockets and over both pulleys of the rear derailleur.
Bring the front or the rear wheel into the correct position between the drop-
outs and the fork or rear frame and slide the RWS quick-release axle from the
left side through the drop-outs and the hub. Mount the lock nut on the right
side.
When continuing to close the lever the resistance you feel should increase sig-
nificantly and towards the end even more strength is required to close the lever.
Use the ball of your thumb while your fingers pull on an immovable part, such
as the fork (a) or a rear stay, but not on a brake disc or spoke, to push it in all the
way.
In its end position, the lever should be at a right angle to the quick-release axle,
i.e. it should not stand out. The lever should lie close to the frame or the fork so
that it cannot be opened accidentally. Make sure, however, that the lever is easy
to handle for actual quick use.
To check whether the lever is securely locked apply pressure to the end of
the hand lever and try to turn it while it is closed (b). If you can turn the lever
around, open it and increase the preload. Screw the tightening nut on the op-
posite side clockwise by half a turn. Close the quick-release lever and check it
again for tightness.
Finally lift the bike a few centimetres, so that the wheel no longer touches the
ground and hit the tyre from above. If it is properly fastened, the wheel will
remain firmly fixed in the drop-outs of the frame or fork without producing any
rattling.
If your seat post is equipped with a quick-release mechanism, check whether
the saddle is firmly fixed by trying to twist it relative to the frame.
DANGER!
G
Make sure the levers of both wheel quick-releases are always on the side
opposite to the chain (c). This will help you to avoid mounting the front
wheel accidentally the wrong way round. In the case of SCOTT bikes with disc
brakes and quick-releases having a 5-mm-axle, it may be reasonable to mount
both quick-releases with the lever on the side of the chain drive. This helps you
not to come into contact with the hot brake disc and prevents you from having
your fingers burnt. If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact your
SCOTT dealer.
DANGER!
G
Never ride your SCOTT bike without having checked first, whether the
wheels are securely fastened. With an insufficiently closed quick-release
the wheel can come loose, thus creating a serious risk of accident!
