The following contains information about changing the position of the motors. Rear Position - Lengthens the wheelbase and gives the wheelchair the most stability and standard maneuverability. Middle Position - Centers the wheelbase and gives the wheelchair standard stability and maneuverability. Forward Position - Shortens the wheelbase and increases maneuverability and distributes additional weight on rear wheels.  The forward mounting position is not available on Arrow wheelchairs equipped with GB motors.
