Possible Causes
Dust buildup on fan blades, Worn fan motor bearings, Foreign object contacting fan impeller, Fan housing misaligned after impact
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn the robot OFF and remove the dustbin.
- 1. Inspect fan intake: Look into the fan intake grille for any visible foreign objects and remove them carefully.
- 2. Clean filters and bin: Dirty filters can cause the fan to work harder and louder. Clean or replace filters and empty the bin.
- 3. Listen during operation: With the bin removed (if safe per manual), briefly run the fan and listen for scraping, which indicates contact with debris.
- 4. Internal inspection (advanced): Open the robot and access the fan housing. Check for dust clumps on the impeller and clean with a soft brush.
- 5. Replace fan assembly: If the fan remains very loud or vibrates heavily, replace the entire fan motor assembly.
Warning: Do not insert tools into the fan while it is running; always disconnect power before touching internal parts.
