May be it could be good to lower the blade when yarbo is park at the charger.
if there is many grass and motor is hot warning it’s hard to clean.
It need to
look the progress
handly control before cleanning.
put the previous state before continue

I could be wrong but I believe it does this already.

We’re sorry, but when there is too much grass and the motor hot warning is triggered, the machine is unable to adjust the height of the cutting discs. As a result, we cannot provide this feature in such situations. Thank you for your understanding!
It does seem to do this already (or it’s an occasional bug)… I would actually request that, when it is lowered, raise it back up afterwards, so it doesn’t get damaged as you try to drive it off the dock.

I recent got my Mower Pro and the blades lowering when on the dock is an issue for me as they’re cutting into the lawn, I cut at 3.7”, when the Yarbo transitions from the dock (on a paver patio) to my yard. If the blades lowering are to try to let any stuck grass escape, that’s fine. But maybe once the Yarbo charges back to the 80%, raise the blades back to where they were. This would be plenty of time for the motors to cool if that’s the reason for the lowering.

this caught me by surprise too on the M1…
I suppose it’s for easy cleaning.

I guess I need to remember to look at height each time I move it. I’m not a fan of the way that’s coded.

Me either….
So the official answer is when the robot docks autonomously it will lower the blades all the way down so that the user can more easily perform maintenance. Admittedly, this is a handy feature if you do maintenance at your dock, I don’t. I expect most people don’t.
If you stop charging and manually drive it, then yes, it stays all the way down. If you start a plan while it’s on the dock, it should raise them to the pathway height and adjust on its route based on areas and pathways traversed.
I like the feature, but I wish that as soon as charging was stopped manually that it would auto raise the blades to max height or to the set height of the pathway at least. The more obvious and probably easiest answer is to just not do it at all.
There might be a feature request already for this, I can’t recall. If not, I’d suggest submitting one. I’d certainly up vote it.

Great insight, thanks. If it raised back up, like you said, if you drove it off or maybe once it charged to 80%, I’d be ok with that. I say 80 because that would cover both continued plan cutting and docking once complete.
I like the idea but it feels like it could be tweaked a bit because a user taking control to do something will be in for a rude awakening if they’re not familiar with the current state of this…just like I was.

You weren’t the first and won’t be the last. It is the ONLY time I had the blade blocked error.

If you are going to lower the blades automatically, you might as well run the deck wash right there on the charging dock.
And turn the pathway into a track grease lane to automatically apply track grease.
Just sayin…

I’d buy that for a dollar!
