Default RBI wheelchair legs help more than just the disabled.

Wheel chair legs increase stability. Wheelchair legs which can go on the RBI 220 and 226, increase stability because of the wider stance, the saw does not vibrate at all and does not move. It sits rock solid. The wheelchair legs also allow you to be a seated position, which in turn helps with posture. You can also have the rear legs higher than the front legs which tips the saw table towards you, which is also a great help.

I am not in a wheelchair, you do not have to be in wheelchair to use these. They will help anyone does not want to stand or sit on a stool crouched over.

I have a lot of neck and back problems because of injuries and fibromyalgia and having my scroll saw outfitted with these wheelchair legs helps out a great deal. I think they're only about $150 from RBI and they are well worth it.

I believe RBI is one only scroll saw company out there that sell's a leg kit for their saws for the disabled. I believe it shows that they really care about people.

But like I said before you do not have to be disabled to use the wheelchair legs they are a help to anybody. I'm not sure if they will work on the G4 or not, but I hope so I may like to invest in one someday.
