Possible Causes
Worn side brush hub, Jammed side brush, Failed side brush motor, Loose side brush screw
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn the robot OFF before touching the side brush.
Steps:
- 1. Remove and clean side brush: Take off the side brush and remove hair and debris from the hub and mounting post.
- 2. Inspect for wear: Check the hub for cracks or rounding that could cause slipping. Replace the side brush if damaged.
- 3. Reinstall securely: Refit the side brush and tighten the screw (if present) so it is snug but not overtightened.
When to call a technician: If the side brush still does not spin or only twitches, the side brush motor or its driver circuit may be defective and require service.
