Neabot

Possible Causes
Worn drive wheels with reduced traction, Weak drive motors, Front caster not swiveling freely, Excessive floor clutter (cables, tassels)
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off the robot before freeing it from obstacles.
- Check wheel tread: Inspect the rubber on the drive wheels. If it is smooth or cracked, replace the wheel modules.
- Service caster: Remove and clean the front caster wheel to ensure it swivels freely.
- Adjust environment: Use cable organizers to lift cords off the floor and remove or tape down rug tassels.
- Use no-go zones: In the Neabot app, set virtual walls or no-go zones around problem areas like thick rugs or high thresholds.
Warning: Do not force the robot over thresholds higher than specified in the manual; this can damage the suspension and wheels.
