Helium centre of gravity setting

Remove the rear wheels. Undo both Allen screws (A) on the
top of the axle stem (B) on both sides of the wheelchair, (Fig.
4.10.6). Then push the complete unit out of the axle and push
both axles stems forwards on the frame, (in terms of the
direction of travel), for a more active COG, or backwards for a
more passive, stable COG. Then re-tighten the screws (A) on
both sides to a torque of 5 Nm. Now adjust the side guards and
brakes to the new wheel position.
CAUTION!
Please note that the tipping behaviour of the wheelchair will
change if the COG has been changed. This may mean that you
need to use anti-tip tubes.
DANGER!
The brakes must be adjusted to the new COG position.
