7. Test Operation: Place your Roomba back on its charging base and turn it on. Run a short cleaning cycle to ensure the new brushes are spinning correctly and the robot is operating as expected.

Operating Instructions

Once the Eztronics Corp Bristle & Beater Brush Kit is correctly installed, your iRobot Roomba 700 series vacuum will operate as usual. The new brushes will work to agitate and sweep debris from your floors into the vacuum's suction path, restoring or improving cleaning efficiency.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and effectiveness of your new brushes, regular cleaning is recommended. It is advisable to clean the brushes after every few cleaning cycles, or more frequently if you have pets or long hair in your home.

• Remove Brushes: Follow steps 1-3 from the "Setup and Installation" section to remove the brushes from your Roomba.
• Clean Hair and Debris: Use the cleaning tool provided with your Roomba (or a pair of scissors) to cut and remove any hair or string wrapped around the brushes, especially near the yellow end caps and bearings.
• Wipe Down: Wipe the brushes and the brush compartment with a dry cloth to remove dust and fine debris.
• Reinstall: Reinstall the clean brushes by following steps 4-6 from the "Setup and Installation" section.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues after installing the new brushes, consider the following:

• Brushes Not Spinning:
  • Ensure the brushes are fully seated and the yellow end caps are properly aligned with their sockets.
  • Check for any obstructions (e.g., large debris, tangled hair) preventing the brushes from rotating freely.
  • Verify the brush guard is securely closed and clicked into place.
• Unusual Noise:
  • Remove and inspect both brushes for any damage or foreign objects lodged within them.
  • Ensure the bearings on the bristle brush are clean and spinning freely.
  • Confirm the brushes are installed in the correct orientation.
• Reduced Cleaning Performance:
  • Perform regular maintenance as described in the "Maintenance" section.
  • Check other Roomba components such as the side brush and filter for cleanliness and wear.

If problems persist, refer to your iRobot Roomba's main user manual or contact Eztronics Corp customer support.
