Replacing the Control Shaft Clamp
Tools Required:
4.0mm hex wrench, torque wrench
The two rubber wedges found in the Control Shaft Base (CSB) hold the Control Shaft in place.
Loosening the bolt will allow removal of the Control Shaft. Tightening the 4mm bolt holds the
Control Shaft in place and prevents it from rotating.
If the Control Shaft rotates even when the wedge clamp is tightened, then the Control Shaft
bearing may have broken. If the inner Control Shaft rotates within the outer Control Shaft, this
bearing is most likely broken and needs replacement by a trained service technician. Control
Shaft clamp parts must always be replaced as a kit.
Before you begin:
>
Make sure the Segway HT is shut down
and not plugged into an AC outlet.
>
Remove any accessories from the Control
Shaft.
>
Make sure the Segway HT is stabilized
while you work on it.
Directions:
1. Remove the Handlebar/Control Shaft
Assembly from the CSB (see “Replacing
the Handlebar/Control Shaft Assembly”
on page 80).
2. Push the Control Shaft Clamp parts out
from inside of CSB.
3. Push in new the Control Shaft Clamp
parts with the threaded clamp on the right
side. Orient the curved sides toward the
center.
4. Install Control Shaft Clamp bolt (M5 x 0.8
x 45 socket head cap 4mm hex) on the
left side
5. Make sure the Handlebar is straight by
laying the Segway HT onto its forward
with Handlebar on ground.

6.8 N-m.
7. Install the Handlebar/Control Shaft
Assembly from the CSB (see “Replacing
