Dyson WashG1 Wet Roller Repair
Wet-roller repair on the WashG1 follows the exact roller, end-cap, tray, and drive arrangement within the WashG1 roller system, clean- and dirty-water components, debris or waste tray, and dock where fitted. This procedure is scoped to the WashG1 (WR01) and its dedicated Dyson wet-cleaner platform.

Instructions
How to complete this repair
- Bright flashlight
- Clean lint-free cloth
- Soft brush reserved for wet-head maintenance
- Container for captured water
- Power the wet cleaner off, disconnect its charger or dock from the outlet, and empty its clean- and dirty-water components before inspection.
- Use only owner-access points and maintenance actions documented for the exact machine code.
- Keep water away from the main vacuum body, battery, charger, robot electrical contacts, dock power connection, and powered dry cleaner heads.
- Do not use a wet head without every tank, tray, roller, cap, and seal installed in the documented orientation.
- Do not open a pump, valve block, liquid sensor, wet-head motor, robot body, or dock plumbing enclosure.
Confirm the WashG1 configuration
WashG1 (WR01) is dedicated hard-floor wet cleaner using counter-rotating motorized rollers instead of vacuum suction, with separate debris, clean-water, and dirty-water systems. Match the machine code and serial label before ordering a wet roller, tank, waste or debris tray, external seal, dock component, battery, or charger; a retail family name can cover incompatible hardware.
Separate the wet system from dry components
Power the WashG1 off, disconnect its charger or dock, and remove the documented tanks, tray, and roller cassette. This machine uses rollers and water collection rather than a vacuum suction airway.
Remove liquid before servicing the roller
Empty and remove the documented clean- and dirty-water components so liquid cannot spill into the roller drive or electrical connections. Record the exact roller orientation, end cap, tray, and latch arrangement before removal.
Inspect the wet roller, ends, and drive interface
Remove hair and debris from the wet roller and tray using the exact owner method. Rinse or clean only the roller and removable parts that the exact owner guide identifies as washable; do not soak a powered head, robot, or dock. Check the roller surface, ends, bearing points, drive coupling, scraper, comb, and seating surfaces for wear or damage.
Refit the roller in its documented orientation
Refit the dry or properly prepared wet roller, end cap, tray, and cover exactly as the WashG1 guide shows. Confirm the roller turns only as the disconnected owner procedure permits and that no seal, scraper, or wiring is trapped.
Make one controlled roller test
Refit every component and test briefly on a suitable hard floor. Watch for smooth roller rotation, correct seating, normal sound, and even contact. Stop for a repeated roller error, grinding, drag, or leakage into the drive area.
An internal leak, pump fault, valve fault, sensor error, or powered-roller fault requires professional service or a confirmed complete external assembly. A dock-contained failure uses robot-dock repair.
