5.8.2 Changing the rotary brush

The rotary brush (Fig. 20/1) must be
checked weekly and changed in the
case of wear. A new rotary brush has a
diameter of 25 cm. When a rotary brush
has a diameter of only 20 cm, it must be
replaced with a new one.
The rotary brush (Fig. 20/1) is
comprised of four individual rotary
brush segments (Fig. 20/2) which are
fixed to the rotary brush shaft
(Fig. 20/5) by the screws (Fig. 20/4).
Pay attention that the bristle pattern on
the rotary brush (Fig. 20/1) is always
arranged in a V-shape in the direction of
driving so that the dirt is guided to the
center of the rotary brush.

Before tipping the Hako
Hamster 800 E, the batteries
must be removed, refer to
Section 5.5.4!

adjacent rotary brush segments
(Fig. 20/2): Loosen the screws
