USING QUICK-RELEASES AND THRU AXLES
QUICK-RELEASES ON THE SCOTT BIKE
Most SCOTT bikes are fitted with quick-releases to ensure fast adjustments,
assembly and disassembly. Be sure to check whether all quick-releases are tight
before you set off on your SCOTT bike. Quick-releases should be handled with
greatest care, as they affect your safety directly.
Practise the proper use of quick-releases to avoid any accidents.
Quick-release retention mechanisms essentially consist of two operative ele-
ments:
1. The hand lever (c) on one side of the hub which creates a clamping force via
a cam when you close it.
2. The tightening nut (d) on the other side of the hub with which the preload on
the threaded rod (quick-release axle) is set.
DANGER!

Do not touch the brake disc directly after having stopped, e.g. after a long
down-hill ride, you may burn your fingers! Always let the brake disc cool
down before opening the quick-release.
Safe fastening of a component with a quick-release
Open the quick-release. You should now be able to read “Open” (e) on the lever.
Make sure the component to be fastened is in the accurate position.
For more information see the chapters “Adjusting the SCOTT bike to the rider”
and “Wheels and tyres” and the manuals of the component manufacturers on
this SCOTT info CD.
Move the lever back, as if to close it. Now you should be able to read ”Close”
(f) on the outside of the lever. When you start closing the lever you should feel
virtually no resistance with your hand until the lever is at a right angle to the
frame/fork.
2. Is your battery fully charged? Remember to fully recharge the battery after
each longer ride (e.g. less than 50% charged). SCOTT uses modern lithi-
um-ion batteries. These have no memory effect. It does not matter, if your
SCOTT pedelec is left as it is for a short time (e.g. during a break) when less
than 50% charged (a). However, you should not wait until the battery is fully
discharged!
For more information see the system instructions of your drive manufacturer
on this SCOTT info CD.
3. Do the display on the control unit and the cycle computer on the handlebars
show all the values? Is there any error message or warning on the display?
Check the values are correct before every ride. Do not set off on your SCOTT
pedelec under any circumstances, if the control element shows a warning.
For more information see the system instructions of your drive manufacturer
on this SCOTT info CD.
4. Is the battery tight in its holder and the lock properly locked up? Never set off
with a loose and unlocked battery.
For more information see the system instructions of your drive manufacturer
on this SCOTT info CD.
5. Are the tyres in good condition and do they have sufficient pressure? Please
note that a pedelec weighs more and that your usual tyre pressure may be
insufficient. A higher pressure gives a better riding stability and reduces the
risk of a puncture. The minimum and maximum pressure (in bar or PSI) is
indicated on the tyre side (b).
For more information see the chapter “Wheels and tyres”.
DANGER!

Do not use your SCOTT pedelec, if it fails at one of these points! A defective
SCOTT pedelec can lead to serious accidents! If you are in doubt or if you
