and accelerate. When you need to turn, slow down and
gently shift the weight on your left orright foot to turn
towards the opposite direction.
MOVE FORWARD
Shift your weight forward to move directly ahead.

IV – SAFE RIDING TECHNIQUES
We sincerely hope every operator can ride the SWEGWAYTM safely. Think back to when you first learned to ride a
bike, drive a car, orskateboard.
Although the SWEGWAYTM is designed with gyroscopic balancing technology in order to maintain maximum
stability, it is still possible to “override” the SWEGWAYTM and tip over when riding too fast for the conditions.
Following these techniques can help ensure that you have a safe, fun riding experience on the SWEGWAYTM.
CAUTION
+SWEGWAYTM highly recommends wearing appropriate clothing and safety gear including knee pads, elbow
pads, wrist braces, and an ASTM F1492 approved helmet for ALL riders of ALL ages at ALL times. Remember
safety before Swag!
+When going through doorways, remember that you are 4.5 in (11 cm) taller on the SWEGWAYTM.
+Avoid wearing anything that can drape over orget caught into/under the wheels.
+Wear flat shoes to maintain flexibility and stability.
+Make sure your feet are always on the pedals. Taking your feet off the SWEGWAYTM while riding isincredibly
dangerous.
+Ride oneven pavement or smooth roads. Relax your legs while riding, knees slightly bent. This helps maintain
balance when you encounter uneven grounds.
+Ensure the vehicle speed is safe to yourself and others, and be ready to stop at any time.
+When riding near others, keep a safe distance to avoid collisions.

SwegwayTM Classic Hoverboard 17 English
