The Segway PT monitors the amount of power being used and will
activate safety alerts when it senses excessive power demands. It is
important that you learn to anticipate and recognize when the
Segway PT is reaching the limits of performance.
Learn to recognize and respond to Safety Alerts; review
"Speed Limiter" on page 48, "Stick Shake Warning" on
page 51, and "Safety Shutdown" on page 55.
Minimum Weight Limit
The rider's weight must not be less than 100 lbs. (45 kg). If the rider is
below the minimum rider weight limit, he/she may not be able to ride
safely because he/she cannot shift his/her weight far enough back
(behind the centerline of the Wheels) to safely slow down and stop.
This is especially true when riding downhill. Also, riders below the
minimum weight limit might fail to properly interact with the
Segway PT's balancing system.
Handlebar Cargo
The total weight of any Handlebar payload plus any other
attachments hanging from the Handlebar must not exceed 10 lbs
(4.5 kg).
Exceeding this Handlebar Cargo limit interferes with the
Segway PT's balancing ability and could cause the Segway PT
to accelerate forward, risking injury and damage.
