OMEO EVOLUTION USER MANUAL
Avoiding Tripping
Your Omeo will trip if it encounters an obstacle
that it can’t get over. It will come to a sudden stop;
the alerts will sound, and the device will rumble
and shake. This is known as a Safety Shake Warning
(Refer to Shake Warning Pg. 40).
A sudden stop against an obstacle could
overpower the balance motors, throw you o and
potentially damage the device.
To avoid tripping, you must be aware of the
riding environment and use the device within
its capabilities.
Avoid:
• Obstacles that the wheels cannot roll over
with ease (greater than 40 mm/1.5 inches), for
example, steps, curbs and potholes
• Surfaces where the body of the Omeo may get
caught up due to contact
• Becoming airborne, as a change in orientation
of your Omeo at speed could cause tripping.
