Slide the skewer through the hollow hub axle of the wheel so that the CLOSE quick release lever will be on the left side of the bike when the wheel is installed. Move the quick release lever to a position halfway between the OPEN and CLOSE position (perpendicular to the bicycle frame). Using your hand, turn the tension adjusting nut until it can no longer be turned and is firmly against the fork or rear dropout (see diagram 2). Ensure the axle is positioned correctly in the forks or rear dropouts Diagram 3: Axle positions. Note: if the Quick Release Lever can easily be pushed to the CLOSE position, this means that it is not secured tightly enough. If this is the case, move the quick release lever to the OPEN position and tighten the tension adjusting nut an additional 1/8 - 1/4 revolution to increase the clamping strength, then return the quick release lever to the CLOSE position. If the Quick Release Lever can still be easily pushed to the CLOSE position, repeat the procedure until proper adjustment is obtained.
