your first ride

4. Once you feel comfortable, and your spotter does

not feel the Segway HT pushing or pulling, have him

let go and back away one arm’s length. Your spotter

should stand ready to grab the Handlebar, if

necessary. You should try to remain still and feel

the Segway HT balance. Remember, if you lean

forward, the Segway HT will move forward. If you

lean back, it will move back. To stay stationary keep

your weight centered over the Wheels.

5. Once you are comfortable remaining still on the

Segway HT, practice stepping off.

a) Make sure you are at a complete stop.

b) Have your spotter securely hold the Handlebar.

c) Remove your left hand from the Steering Grip.

d) Keeping the Platform level, step down to the

rear of the Segway HT, one foot at a time.

Continue to hold the Handlebar with the

Platform level. If you tilt the Platform when the

Segway HT is in Balance Mode, it will move and

could bump into you or another person or object.

6. Do not let go of the Segway HT when it is in Balance

Mode. After stepping off, hold onto the Handlebar

until you switch to Power Assist Mode (see page 24)

or power off. If you let go of the Segway HT while it

is still in Balance Mode, it could run into a person or

object and cause injury or damage.
