c. Using a 3mm Allen (hex) key, turn the set
screw clockwise to increase the tension. If the
tension is increased too much, the swivel will
not be able to move from one position to the
next causing your stand to be stuck in
whatever position it was set to before you
tightened the set screw.
Note
: We have found that a good starting point is to
tighten the set screw just to the point where the
stand can no longer move, then reducing the
tension by about one half turn. This setting will offer
a solid click into the desired stand position.
Note
: There is nothing permanent about installing the
SteadiStand retrofit kit. Should the stand positions
become loose in the future, simply unscrew the
SteadiStand from the stock Segway

parking stand
swivel, tighten the 3mm screw inside, and reattach.
Periodically check the tension of your stand. If the
stand moves from position to position too freely, the
spring tension may need to be increased.
It is imperative that the spring tension be maintained
to reduce the chances of the stand deploying while
your Segway

is in motion, as injury may result.
