Troubleshoot/repair hose spreader

Description

The hose spreader spreads the hose so its evenly distributed on the hose reel. For various reasons, it happens that it stops. Here we go through different errors and the solutions to these problems.

  1. Start the robot. Lower the det transport wheel so the robot stands with the rear wheels in the air.
    1. Double click on the rear wheel of the robot, this will make the rear wheels lock the drive backwards, the hose reel will try to roll up the hose and the hose spreader will start to swing in its motion.
      .
  2. If the hose spreader is not moving, wait for at least 2 minutes, the hose spreader can stand and wait at its turning point before turning. If it does not start, then the troubleshooting begins in the hose spreaders enclosure.
    .

The cover of the housing is removed with 4 screws, one is very narrow but can be removed with a small chisel. Remove the side of the robot to make more space while you work
