[2024] How to Replace Track Side Plate
Purpose of the Track Side Plate
The Track Side Plate is an important component designed to prevent snow from accumulating
inside the tracks and reaching the motors, which could lead to operational malfunctions during
snow removal. Your Yarbo Core comes with two plastic-painted Track Side Plates pre-installed.
To enhance performance during snow-blowing, we recommend replacing the plastic side plates
with the more robust metal Track Side Plates when you install the Snow Blower module.
When to Replace the Track Side Plates
When you are ready to attach the Snow Blower Module to Yarbo, it’s the ideal time to replace
the Track Side Plates with the metal version. The metal Track Side Plates provide better durability
and optimal snow-blowing performance, ensuring that Yarbo continues to operate effectively
in snowy conditions.
Step-by-Step Instructions for Replacement
- You will need a Allen Key#2 that fits the screws used on the Track Side Plates.
- Ensure you have the replacement metal Track Side Plates ready.

Step 2: Remove the Existing Plastic Track Side Plates
- Locate the Screws: The Track Side Plate is held in place by four screws.
- Unscrew the Screws: Using your screwdriver, carefully unscrew the four screws securing the
plastic Track Side Plate. Refer to the image below for visual guidance on unscrewing the Track
Side Plates.

- Position the Metal Side Plate: Place the new metal Track Side Plate in the same position where
the plastic one was removed. - Secure with Screws: Use the same screws to securely attach the metal Track Side Plate. Make
sure the screws are tightened properly to avoid any movement during Yarbo’s operation.
Step 4: Double-Check Installation
- After securing the Track Side Plate, double-check that the screws are tight and the side plate
is positioned correctly. - This is important to prevent any potential loosening during Yarbo's work, which might affect
the machine's efficiency.
- Enhanced Protection: The metal Track Side Plates provide superior protection from snow
accumulation compared to the plastic version. - Better Durability: They are more resistant to impact and wear, making them suitable for
heavy-duty snow-clearing operations. - Improved Performance: By keeping the tracks clear of snow, the metal side plates ensure
consistent performance without interruptions due to motor clogging.
