Your Discovery drives through manure and moisture every day

As a result, tyres, strips and slide plates wear quickly. Replacing them on time keeps the floor clean and prevents downtime.

Cleaner floor, healthier hooves

Replace parts on time to reduce the chance of unexpected breakdowns.

Less downtime

Preventive replacement stops your Discovery from getting stuck in the middle of the night.

Lower costs

Replacing parts yourself saves on call-out costs and labour.

Wear strip (silicone): ± 2× per year at € 26.40 (excl. VAT). Brush/sprayer set: annually with intensive use. Battery: ± € 180 (excl. VAT) depreciated over 2.5 – 4 years depending on load. Small consumables (couplings, bolts, nozzles): fixed amount. Collector: + slide plate wear. Robots older than 5 years: + 15% on wear parts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! Many parts of the Lely Discovery can be easily replaced yourself with our drawings and videos.

On average, a battery lasts 2 to 4 years, depending on the number of charge cycles and the ambient temperature. Do you notice that the robot runs shorter or stops in between? That is often a sign that the battery capacity has decreased and replacement is needed.

We supply both original and high-quality (improved) alternatives.

Turn off the robot, remove the old brush, and clean the frame. Then mount the new brush on the shaft according to the arrow direction.

Make sure the brush is not too tight — that can overload the motor.
