Default Adjusting bearings Mavic Helium Wheels

Hi

Can anybody point me to a site with info on how to adjust the bearings on
Mavic Helium's?

Mavic apparently doesn't want us costumers to know these things.

Thanks

Gerard Remery

Adjust the bearing free play (install the wheel to the frame and put the
bike down on the floor) : The adjuster nut contacts the external face of the
bearing when using hub wrench M40123. Repeat the operation if the adjustment
doesn't seem to be optimum.

Clamp wheel in dropouts. Tighten ring with the indentations with pin wrench
that came with wheels until there is no lateral play in the wheel. Wheel
should turn freely with no binding.
