[2024] What if the Docking Station Cannot be Placed in Steep Areas?

To maximize Yarbo’s performance and prevent potential damage, it's essential to place the docking station on a stable, level surface—especially in areas with uneven terrain. If positioned on a slope, Yarbo may slide, leading to charging interruptions, reduced efficiency, and potential damage to the device.

To address this, we recommend creating a level platform for the docking station by leveling a section of the terrain and reinforcing it with a sturdy, weather-resistant board. Start by selecting a location with minimal slope, if possible, and use a shovel or leveling tool to excavate and flatten the area. Lay down the board to create a solid foundation that Yarbo can dock onto reliably. Ensuring the platform’s tilt is less than one degree is crucial, as even slight angles may impact docking alignment and charging stability.

A leveling tool or smartphone app can help confirm the platform’s angle before placing the docking station. Regularly check the level of the platform to account for any shifting caused by weather or natural ground settling. Taking these steps will ensure Yarbo docks and charges effectively, providing a safe and dependable docking area and minimizing risks for long-term use.
