Avoiding Slips
The Segway PT Tires must be able to grip the ground for the machine
to stay upright!
Slips occur when the Segway PT loses traction, potentially causing
loss of control and a fall. Abrupt maneuvers, and riding over slippery
surfaces, loose objects and materials, or steep slopes can cause the
Segway PT to lose traction.
z Avoid abrupt maneuvers, such as fast stopping or starting.
z Avoid riding on slippery surfaces such as snow, ice, wet floors,
wet grass, or any other surface that might cause slipping.
z Avoid riding over loose objects or materials such as small
branches, litter, or small stones.
z Use caution when riding over any terrain change such as
pavement to grass, or over a threshold or speed bump.
z Avoid riding on steep slopes.
z Maintain Tire contact with the ground.
