When to Replace
Under most circumstances, the chassis cover is
removed to service the machine or components
in the power base, and is reused to cover the
power base during reassembly. It is appropriate
to replace the chassis cover with a new one if
either of the following symptoms are present:
•
When the edge gasket or the bolt
gasket is torn.
•
When the cover is bent or warped.
•
When the rider detect button is
damaged.
The edge gasket must be capable of maintaining
a seal between the cover and chassis interface.
Damage to edge gasket requires replacement of
cover.
FASTENERS
•
Use only Segway-approved fasteners.
•
Do not tighten or reuse any fastener except the screws used to
attach the battery packs, wheel nuts, and LeanSteer frame.
Instead, when any other fastener is loose or removed, replace
the fastener with a new Segway-approved fastener. See
Appendix C, ”Fasteners” for more information.
•
Before using a fastener, make certain the fastener is the
correct size and type with any necessary washer and thread
lock in place (see Table C-1 on page C-1).
•
Since the pre-applied thread lock compound is intended for
single use only, reuse of fasteners is not permitted with the
exception of the wheel nuts, battery fasteners, and LeanSteer
clamp bolt.
•
Do not attempt to repair any stripped or damaged screw hole.
Instead, replace the part. If replacement part is not available,
do not reassemble.
•
Insert fasteners slowly and carefully. Do not cross-thread or
over-tighten fasteners. Tighten only to the prescribed torque.
•
Failure to adhere to these warnings could lead to serious injury
or death or damage to property.
