Looks like my S1 is heading to the shop-Auger Overcurrent

Welp. Put Yarbo to work today and it didn’t disappoint. 2 big jobs, work twice areas, parameter laps and some touch ups.
On the way back to the DS got an Auger Overcurrent.
I paused the plan, shoed up (no socks) and go check it out. I think the auger bent! I wonder in it toddled/tipped down hill a little and jammed the auger into a rock or ice chunk.
The pin did break but they also bent. Maybe because it didn’t have a clean break and the pins bent the auger bent. So perhaps the pins failed me?

The thing had enough power to what looks like a rotation or 2. Thing is pretty powerful!

Ticket is open #140526

I cannot believe I have to manual shovel. I’m so bummed. Hahahaha.








Side wall bent or auger blade? Grab a pair of big pliers. :wink:

The auger blade. I may have to go out there and manually address the issue.

It got after it.


These two are the other side:


No issue over here.

May need some touchup paint, that left a mark.

Get yourself a nice sized wrench and a hammer. Get your robot back in service!

Seriously. Thats what I would be doing while awaiting Yarbo to send you a warranty replacement.

I’d offer to weld a little reinforcement tab on the backside but that’s a lot of gas money​:sweat_smile::sweat_smile::sweat_smile:
