Lifting and Loading
Use safe and appropriate loading and lifting
techniques. Make sure the Segway HT is powered off
prior to lifting. Segway recommends that two people
work together to lift the Segway HT. Each person
should place one hand on the Control Shaft (below the
Height Adjustment Collar). Each person should place
the other hand under the Platform or, with the
Segway XT, use the Lifting Handles on the Fender
Frames. Lift with your legs, not your back.
Keep Wheel Inserts Installed
Some Standard and Enhanced Traction Tire/Wheel
Assemblies contain Wheel Inserts. See illustration on
page 6. For these Wheels, you can choose different
styles to customize your Segway HT. To reduce risk of
injury from the Wheel openings, make sure the Wheel
Inserts are properly installed.
Watch Your Fingers
Never lift the Segway HT by its Tires, Fenders, or
Wheels because your hands or fingers could become
caught between the Tire and the Fender, resulting in
injury.
Storage
To avoid permanent damage to the Battery Packs, you
must fully charge the Battery Packs at least once every
month, even when your Segway HT is in storage.
Store your Segway HT (and its Battery Packs) indoors,
in a place that is dry and free of moisture, humidity, and
temperature extremes. Even if you will not be using
your Segway HT for an extended period of time, you
should leave it plugged into AC power. Otherwise the
Battery Packs could fully discharge over time, causing
them damage.
Remain within the recommended operating, charging,
and storage temperature ranges (see page 23) to
preserve the full performance capabilities of the
Segway HT Battery Packs.

Avoid Submersion
Do not submerge the Battery Packs or Platform in
water. Do not wash the Segway HT with a power washer
or high pressure hose. Avoid getting water in the
Charge Port. Always close the Charge Port Cover after
charging.
Avoid exposure to heavy downpours or extended
periods of heavy rain (including during riding, storage,
or while being transported.) If your Segway HT has
been exposed to a heavy downpour or an extended
period of rain, remove the Handlebar/Control Shaft
Assembly (see page 38). To reduce risk of water
damage to the Handlebar electronics, make sure you
do not tip the machine forward. Inspect for water in the
Control Shaft Base. If water is present, tip the Platform
forward to drain, and allow to dry. After ensuring there
is no water present in the Control Shaft Base or Control
Shaft Cord Connectors, reinstall your Handlebar/
Control Shaft Assembly (see page 39).
See page 41 for cleaning instructions.
