- Secure New Brush: Place the screw back into the center of the new brush and tighten it with the screwdriver until secure. Do not overtighten.
- Flip Robot Back: Carefully flip the robot vacuum back to its upright position.
- Power On: Power on your Neato robot vacuum. The new side brush should now spin freely.
