How I do maintenance on the M1, YMMV

Thanks for the video! This seems like a great reason to nip away at the grass regularly vs cutting down long/thick growth.

Nice video. I would recommend when spraying it off that you tip it on its side to avoid pooling in the motor and wheel wells. Also wouldn’t spray from the back, it’s easy for water to enter the housing by the bumper that way.

Hi there! Thanks for sharing such a detailed maintenance video—it’s sure to help many of our users. Would you mind if we featured your video in the Yarbo Weekly News so others can benefit as well? Please let me know if that’s okay.

Sure. I’m sure there’s room for improvement too but it may be a good starting point. Use it if it’s useful :person_shrugging:t2:

Bryan,

after cleaning I always use wd40 on the spindle, blades and just about everything. Is that bad?

No, I’m fairly certain I saw that in their official recommendation to help prevent rust.
