Stepping On
!
Stepping on is trickier though perhaps easier to manage without an assistant.
Stepping on from the rear is straightforward. Backing on from the front is onerous,
though using an apple box the same height as the base can help. Again, avoid
the control stick. Tip: once the machine is positioned, switch it off and on
(remembering to engage Balance Mode), so that the start-up routine, mentioned
on page 3, limits the steering until the Segway is in motion.

up time is negligible, operating time is greatly extended.
