3.1 Sled Coordinates<br />
3.1.1 The coordinate system used must be an ordinary Cartesian co-ordinate system with 90˚<br />
between the axes.<br />

seat mounting bolt hole, in the stationary part of the seat runner. This common origin will<br />

first instance, the right hand rear mounting hole shall be used. If this is not present, the next<br />
available fixation point shall be chosen, considering available options in the following order:<br />
left hand rear, left hand front, right hand front.<br />
