  1. Cleaning the Yarbo Core

  • Disconnect the battery.

  • Use a clean, soft cloth or brush to remove debris, mud, and other particles.

  • Avoid using a high-pressure water hose or any high-pressure cleaning methods to clean the Yarbo core.

WARNING

  • Ensure that the power socket remains dry and does not come into contact with water.

  • Do not use solvents on plastic components, as commercial solvents may damage the appearance and integrity of your Yarbo.

  1. Cleaning the Cameras and Sensors

To ensure optimal performance and prevent damage to sensitive components, follow these cleaning guidelines:

  • Cleaning Method: Use a soft, non-abrasive cloth or microfiber cloth to gently clean the cameras and sensors.

  • What to Avoid: Avoid using abrasive materials, solvents, or excessive amounts of water, as these can damage the components and affect their performance.

  1. Track Maintenance

  • Regular Cleaning: Clean the underside of the tracks regularly to remove mud, weeds, and debris. This helps prevent clogs and ensures smooth movement.

  • Routine Inspections: Check for any cracks or signs of damage to the tracks. Also, verify that the track axles are not loose or deformed. If you notice any damage or if the track’s steering becomes unresponsive, contact Yarbo for professional maintenance and repairs.

  1. Rain Sensor Maintenance

The rain sensor, located at the front of the mower, detects weather changes. To ensure proper functionality, keep the grooves clean:

  1. Preventing Rust and Corrosion

If the mower remains unused for more than three months, follow these steps to prevent rust:

  • Detach the mower from the universal body.

  • Place the mower on the Module Vertical Stand.

  • Clean the underside using a high-pressure water hose, but avoid spraying the universal body.

  • Wipe the mower with a clean cloth.

  • Store the mower in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated area with moisture-proof and anti-corrosion measures.

Rust Removal: If rust develops, apply WD-40 or another suitable rust remover to the affected areas. Wait for about 3 minutes, then scrub with a nylon pad. Reapply WD-40 to prevent further corrosion. Be sure to avoid spraying the rain sensor.
