Instructions
How to complete this repair
- Bright flashlight
- Soft dry brush
- Clean dry lint-free cloth
- Scissors or tweezers used away from wiring and seals
- Switch the robot off and unplug its charging dock before removing the bin, filter, brush bar, or owner-removable battery cover.
- Use only owner-access points and maintenance actions documented for the exact machine code.
- Switch the robot off and remove it from the unplugged dock before turning it over.
- Do not pull a wheel or track off its axle, open a drive pod, apply oil, or rotate a drive motor with external power.
Confirm the 360 Vis Nav configuration
360 Vis Nav (RB03) is an RB03 camera-guided dry robot with a full-width brush bar, edge actuator, wheels, and a charging dock. Match the machine code and serial label before ordering a filter, bin, brush bar, battery where owner-replaceable, or dock assembly; a retail family name can cover incompatible hardware.
Inspect the movement hardware
Place the robot upside down on a clean, soft, stable surface without pressing on its camera or sensors. Inspect drive wheels, front support points, and edge actuator for hair, thread, grit, a wedged object, tread damage, or a visibly displaced part.
Remove accessible debris
Cut wrapped fibers in small sections and lift them away without pushing tools behind a seal or into a drive housing. Turn only an owner-free-moving surface gently enough to expose debris; stop if it binds or grinds.
Check the surrounding underside
Clean debris from the full-width triple-action brush bar, nearby inlet, and external sensors because brush drag, a blockage, or a dirty navigation surface can resemble a drive fault.
Run one clear-floor movement test
Return the robot upright, restore the dock, and run one brief test on a clear, level floor. Repeated veering, immobility, grinding, track derailment, or a wheel error requires professional drive-system service.
