Traction / Ground Clearance Issue
Robot gets stuck frequently on low thresholds, rugs, or cords; its wheels spin but it cannot free itself.

Possible Causes
Worn drive wheel tires, weak wheel suspension springs, excessive weight from aftermarket accessories, low battery reducing torque.
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off the robot before inspecting the wheels.
Check wheels and suspension:
- Inspect the drive wheel tires for wear or smoothness; replace if the tread is worn down.
- Press down and release each wheel to ensure the suspension moves freely and springs back.
Usage adjustments:
- Remove loose cables and very thick rugs from the cleaning area.
- Avoid attaching heavy accessories that the robot was not designed for.
If traction remains poor: Replace worn wheel modules or tires. If the robot is older and the battery is weak, replacing the battery can also improve climbing ability.
