Where:
AC = b cos , and
BC = ED = (h-r) sin ,
Then:
AB = AC BC
= (b cos ) - (h-r) sin
Substitute the value of AB form the above equation in Eq. (6), then
Rf 1 (L cos ) = W((b cos ) - (h-r) sin )
Rf 1 (L cos ) = W b cos - W(h-r) sin
W(h-r) sin = W b cos -

( h r ) is the distance Center of Gravity above the axle plane, Eq. (7)
h r = 0.189 m
h is the distance Center of Gravity above the ground, Eq. (8)
h = 0.189 + 0.4938 = 0.494 m
