Has anyone removed the guards from the pro mower? I mowed about 20 times with the regular deck last year before I got anything stuck in it and then removed the guards and never had a problem after, the pro deck, despite having much smaller guards, seems to be getting a lot more stuck in them. I tr…

I’ve not removed mine but I’ve not had issues with anything getting stuck in them either.

Have not removed them or needed to remove them. What is getting stuck in them?

Pine cones… literally when I first got it i put a few pinecones in front of it and ran over them to see if it would cut them up… and this happened: [image] Yarbo Pro Mower delivery? Yarbo Product Talk Well I was going to post a couple of pictures but @tallman.…

From what I remember, I thought the same thing, but the black guard part is smaller than that silver disk attached to the motor with that big bolt in the middle… I wasn’t sure taking that off was a good idea. Would be that or to cut the guard off…

Alright, thank you… I will probably give it a shot this weekend.

Did you end up taking them off? I keep getting sticks/chunks of wood stuck. I have a lot of trees. It does fine going over stuff, until it doesn’t.

Not yet… picked up the pinecones for now, lol. And agree, I assume it would be better for not getting clogged up with grass (I don’t ever mow wet grass so never really an issue for me) but somehow a good bit worse than the non pro version for bigger things… Let me know if you take it off and how i…

Other than an occasional stick getting wedged in the guards, I haven’t had an issue with any clogging. Even with wet grass.

I don’t think it would be too complicated to remove.
