Sachs Elan 12 speed hub

I have either lost or misplaced the manual for my Sachs 12 speed hub
and have not been able to find a PDF online that illustrates how to
release the shifter cable from the hub.

There is some kind of a 'quick release', to make wheel removal easy
but I have forgotten how it worked.

I would appreciate it if you have a link that will help me.

TIA

Lewis.

I found this under SRAM, which appears to be the successor company. Sparc
12 exploded view. maybe this is the same and maybe it'll help.

Just inside the chainstay about 130mm from the axle there's a snap-apart
interface between the gear wire and hub control wire. Fingers only, no
tools.

Does it give ya a nice manicure if you're not careful like those
springy Nexus thingies?

Nope, painless interface!
Pull a Nexus casing out of its stop before attacking the fingerbiters on
the hub. That's in Shimano's directions, which few have actually read.

Thanks, this is what I needed.

Also, I needed to put my glasses on, so I could see what I was
doing. :-)

Kind regards.
