Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to install the new edge-sweeping brush on your Roomba Combo Essential robot:

1. Power Off: Ensure your Roomba Combo Essential robot is powered off and unplugged from its charging base before beginning installation.
2. Access Brush Compartment: Turn the robot over to access the underside. Locate the edge-sweeping brush compartment, typically secured by a screw.
3. Remove Old Brush: Use a screwdriver (if necessary) to remove the screw holding the old brush in place. Gently pull the old brush upwards to detach it from the robot.
4. Clean Area: Clean any accumulated hair or debris from the brush post and surrounding area before installing the new brush.
5. Install New Brush: Align the new edge-sweeping brush with the brush post. Press it down firmly until it clicks into place. Ensure the brush is securely seated.
6. Secure Brush: Reinsert and tighten the screw (if applicable) to secure the new brush.
7. Power On: Turn your robot back on.

Operating Instructions

The edge-sweeping brush operates automatically as part of your Roomba Combo Essential robot's cleaning cycle. Once installed, no further manual operation of the brush is required. The robot's programming will engage the brush to effectively clean edges and corners.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance of the edge-sweeping brush is crucial for maintaining your robot's cleaning performance.

Replacement Frequency:

• The replacement frequency for the edge-sweeping brush varies depending on usage.
• Replace the brush when visible wear is apparent, such as bent or missing bristles, or if cleaning performance along edges and in corners diminishes.

Cleaning the Brush:

• Periodically remove the edge-sweeping brush (following the removal steps in the 'Setup and Installation' section) to clean any hair or debris that may have wrapped around the bristles or the brush post.
• Use a small tool or your fingers to carefully remove tangled hair.
• Ensure the brush spins freely after cleaning and reinstallation.

Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your edge-sweeping brush, consider the following:

• Reduced Edge Cleaning: If your robot is no longer effectively cleaning along walls and in corners, the edge-sweeping brush may be worn out or tangled with debris. Inspect the brush for wear and clean it, or replace it if necessary.
• Unusual Noise: A new or recently cleaned brush should operate quietly. If you hear unusual noises coming from the brush area, check for any obstructions or improper installation. Ensure the brush is fully seated and the retaining screw (if present) is tightened.
• Brush Not Spinning: If the brush is not spinning, ensure it is correctly installed and free of obstructions. If the issue persists, the brush or the robot's brush motor may require further inspection.
