Explain that the Rider MUST
recognize and respond to the
Stick Shake Warning.
One of the ways that the Segway PT notifies you
when you are at risk of falling is by shaking the
Handlebar and making growling noises. This is called
the Stick Shake Warning.
<<recognize>>
Demonstrate by standing behind
the Platform with the machine in
Standby mode.
With the machine tilted back so
the rear Balance Indicator light
shows red, place one foot on the
Platform. The Segway PT will give
the Stick Shake Warning to alert
the rider that it is not safe to step
on yet.
Explain that this is only one
reason for Stick Shake Warning.
If the Stick Shake Warning occurs while riding, slow
down. If the Stick Shake Warning persists, come to a
stop and safely step off. Do not attempt to ride again
until the condition that caused the persistent Stick
Shake Warning has been identified and corrected.
If the Stick Shake Warning occurs while you are
stopped or stuck, step off immediately and do not
attempt to ride again until:
You are clear of all obstacles and slopes.
You are certain that you did not experience a Safety
Shutdown. (See “Safety Shutdown” below).
<<respond>>
Explain that, if Stick Shake
Warning occurs, you must
respond based on the situation—
slow down or stop and step off as
described.
For additional information and conditions that may
cause the Stick Shake Warning to occur with or
without a rider standing on the Mats, see “Stick
Shake Warning” in the User Manual.
Explain that the Rider MUST
recognize and respond to the
Safety Shutdown.
If the Segway PT detects a fault in any of its
redundant systems or a Battery is depleted beyond its
safe limit, it performs a Safety Shutdown.
When a Safety Shutdown occurs, the Segway PT
automatically reduces its speed, gives the Stick
Shake Warning (shakes the Handlebar and makes
growling noises), flashes the Balance Indicator lights,
emits a warning tone, and the InfoKey Controller
displays an unhappy face.
<<recognize>>
When the Segway PT shakes,
flashes, emits a warning tone and
slows down, you are experiencing
a Safety Shutdown
