Figure 3a-b: Reinstall the Filter Door into the underside of the Particle Bin by gliding the
Filter Door into grooves (Figure 3a), and snap the Filter Door into place (Figure 3b).
Removing and cleaning Roomba's Main Brushes
1. Turn Roomba's Main Power Switch off, empty particle bin, and place Roomba
upside down (cleaning surface up) on a flat surface, with the Front Bumper facing
away from you.
2. Cut hair or other objects wound around the Cleaning Brushes with a pair of
scissors. Avoid cutting the bristle of the Bristle Brush or pulling with excessive
force on objects wound around the Brushes, as this may damage the Brushes.
3. If the objects do not detach themselves from the Brushes, unlatch the Wire
Guards that cover the Brushes by pushing the Release Tab backward. Pull the
rear of the hinged Wire Guards up and out of their slots, and then swing them up
toward the front of the device.
4. Unscrew the screw located on the right side of the Self-Adjusting Cleaning
Deck with a Philips-head screwdriver.
5. Remove the screw and pull up the plastic Brush Coupler. The Brushes will
come up with the Brush Coupler. Pull the Brush Coupler off the end of the
Brushes, then pull the Brushes to the right and up, free of the device.
6. Clean the objects off the brushes. Also, make sure to clean the brushes,
including the ends of the brushes (brush axles) as hair tends to buildup in that
area.
Reinserting the Main Brushes
1. Put the Self-Adjusting Cleaning Deck back together by inserting the ends of
the two Brushes into the square sockets in the Cleaning Deck.
2. Insert the other ends of the Brushes into the small holes in the Brush Coupler.
Lower the Brush Coupler into its slot and screw in the screw.
3. Swing the Wire Guards back in place and snap them down into their slots.
Please refer to the Owner's Manual to see this process illustrated.
