Yarbo Snow Blower Gen 2 Robotic Snow Blower | Core + Module, 24 in 2-Stage

Map your driveway and paths once in the Yarbo app and the robot handles every storm on its own: it monitors weather conditions, begins clearing when snowfall starts, and works through the storm in passes so snow never builds up. It clears a 24-inch width with a 12-inch intake, covers about 6,000 square feet per charge in 1 inch of snow, runs 90 minutes per charge, docks itself at about 20 percent battery, and resumes at about 80 percent after a 90-minute recharge.

The two-stage design is rated for dry, wet, and packed snow up to its 12-inch intake height, throws 6 to 40 feet, and directs snow through a chute that rotates from -10 to 190 degrees with a deflector that adjusts from -5 to 50 degrees. It works on paved, concrete, asphalt, and gravel surfaces: Yarbo suggests an auger minimum height of 0 on concrete or asphalt, 0.4 to 0.6 inch on brick or cracked surfaces, and 0.8 to 1.2 inches on gravel or mud, and a linear actuator lifts the auger over bumps and steps up to 2 inches. Spiral Mode covers circular driveways, multi-zone mapping clears driveways, sidewalks, and paths in one run, and Yarbo rates the Snow Blower for slopes up to 36 percent (about 20 degrees).

Yes. Autonomous, scheduled clearing is the primary mode, but the Yarbo app gives you full remote control from indoors: adjust throw distance, chute direction, intake height, and clearing pattern, or spot-clear a specific area on demand.

Yarbo rates the Snow Blower package for operation from -13 F to 140 F (-25 C to 60 C), with Q355 steel construction, an IPX5 rating, and the Snow Track with Anti-slip Studs for traction on snow and ice; the Gen 2 module adds onboard heating that protects the battery and drivetrain in extreme conditions down to -40 C. An Anti-Freeze Mode moves the chute, deflector, and actuator every 30 minutes while the robot sits in standby at or below 0 C, so occasional movement in a cold garage is normal. Fit the high RTK antenna mount in winter so snow cannot bury the antennas.

Yarbo positions itself with RTK-GPS, taking corrections from either the included Data Center base station or Yarbo's NetRTK network service, while binocular cameras, an IMU, and odometry handle obstacle detection and dead reckoning. Install the Data Center where it has an unobstructed 120-degree view of the sky and a wired Ethernet connection (Yarbo supplies a 30-meter PoE cable), and keep it and the Docking Station fixed: moving either one means reinstalling the Data Center and remapping from scratch. NetRTK is free for the life of the robot and needs a steady internet connection (home Wi-Fi, Yarbo's 4G service, or Wi-Fi HaLow through a Data Center); coverage varies by region, the app shows whether your area is covered, and the robot cannot use NetRTK and a Data Center at the same time. You draw working areas, pathways, sidewalks, and no-go zones on the map in the Yarbo app.

The Yarbo Core, the Snow Blower Module Gen 2, a wired charger, the Data Center, the installation and tool kit, one Y Series battery, the Docking Station, the Snow Track with Anti-slip Studs, a snow shovel, and the tow hitch. Yarbo lists Snow Blower Module Gen 2 deliveries as beginning in October 2026 with the other items shipping in 3 to 8 business days, so the package may arrive in more than one shipment.

Yarbo covers the Core and each module with a 2-Year Limited Warranty for residential use, starting on the earlier of app activation or three days after delivery. Yarbo's optional YarboCare extended warranty (administered by AIG, with XCotton activating the plan) brings total coverage to five years and must be bought within 60 days of delivery; Yarbo's warranty policy page lists authorized-dealer orders as eligible while its enrollment page verifies yarbo.com order numbers, so RoboticsSelect confirms eligibility for your order on request. Tracks, antennas, shear pins, scraper bars, skid shoes, and other consumables are excluded, as is commercial or rental use, and shipping for warranty service may be charged. RoboticsSelect is an authorized Yarbo dealer, so support starts with us: email support@roboticsselect.com or call (412) 415-7375, Monday through Friday 9am to 5pm EST, and we coordinate technical issues, warranty claims, and replacements with Yarbo's service team.

Shipping is free within the contiguous United States: in-stock orders leave the warehouse in 3 to 5 business days and typically deliver 5 to 8 business days after dispatch, with tracking emailed at dispatch. You have 30 days from delivery to initiate a return on an unopened, unused unit; cancellations before shipment are free, elective returns after shipment incur return shipping and a restocking fee, and refunds are processed within 10 days of the return arriving.

Map the driveway and paths as working areas, draw a pathway from the Docking Station, and set a snow-throwing direction for every area, because a snow work plan will not run without one. Turn on Snowfall Notification in the Schedule page: the app watches the 6-hour forecast and, when more than 1 inch of snow is expected, asks whether to schedule clearing, extends the plan if snow keeps falling, and emails you 5 minutes before the robot starts; enable Automatically Create Schedule as well and it schedules without asking. Yarbo recommends starting as soon as snow begins to fall rather than after it piles up. Battery thresholds are adjustable: the robot returns to the dock at 15 to 30 percent, leaves again at 50 to 80 percent, and shuts the auger off below 10 to 15 percent to save power.

Start the robot as soon as snow begins to fall rather than after it piles up. Between passes press the emergency stop and use the supplied shovel to clear snow and ice from the RTK antennas and the auger, and in heavy or wet snow Yarbo suggests removing part of the protection fence and applying a ceramic coating to the chute and auger (never to the antennas). Auger, chute, and deflector overcurrent errors (codes OA001 to OA003, OC001 to OC003, and OD001 to OD003) usually mean ice or a blockage: clear it with the robot stopped, press Clear Error in the controller, and contact RoboticsSelect if the error returns.

After each session, with the robot off and cooled, brush snow and ice out of the tracks and drive area so the tracks cannot freeze, and apply Yarbo's track grease about every four charges in winter; if the tracks do freeze, thaw the robot in a garage rather than with a heat source. Check the discharge chute before a run and clear a clog only with the robot shut down and the supplied tool, never by hand, and keep hands away from the auger and impeller. Inspect the auger, housing, impeller, and shear pins, and replace broken shear pins or a worn scraper bar and skid shoes; shear pins, scraper bars, skid shoes, and tracks are consumables sold through authorized dealers and are not covered by the warranty. For wet, sticky snow Yarbo suggests the Turbo auger mode at slow or medium speed, a ceramic coating on the chute and auger, or the optional plow blade.

Yarbo needs an RTK fixed solution (status 4 on the app's diagnosis page) to run on its own; the GPS icon turns yellow on a weak signal and red or gray when there is none, and a poor fix is the usual reason a robot pauses, wanders, or crosses its mapped boundary. Yarbo's first checks are a clear sky view for the Data Center (at least 25 satellites) and the Core (around 20), no-go zones under tree canopies and beside sheds that block the sky, tight antenna and cable connections, and the HaLow or 4G link between the Data Center and the robot. If it persists, restart the robot from Yarbo Settings > Safety Settings > Restart Yarbo System and power-cycle the Data Center by unplugging its PoE cable; a Data Center flashing red after a move or first power-up is a self-correction state that calls for a firmware update followed by a reinstall of the Data Center. Contact RoboticsSelect if the status does not return to fixed.

The Docking Station only starts charging when the battery is below 85 percent, and the robot can only find the dock from inside the mapped area with a good RTK fix; a robot pushed onto the pad by hand needs the charging sequence started manually. The dock's light shows the state: solid blue is ready, flashing blue is preparing, flashing green is charging, solid green is full, and solid red points to the power supply or surroundings (Yarbo specifies 120 V 60 Hz in the U.S. and no metal objects near the dock). The dock must sit level within one degree, so Yarbo recommends building a flat, weather-resistant platform on sloped sites. If the battery stops charging to full, Yarbo's support team can push a battery firmware update remotely and replaces the battery if that does not fix it.
