6. Detach the remote control handle.

on the remote control handle blinks when it is
transmitting signals to the robot.
8. If you press the left arrow of the auger spin
direction button (A), debris will be thrown to the

the right (B).
9. Ensure that the auger is spinning and tossing debris out of the
gutter and away from your home.
10. Press the forward and backward button to drive the robot
through the gutter and remove the debris.
Handling Dense Clogs
Looj can handle most debris found in your gutter. Occasionally, there may
be heavy debris that will not clear in a single pass. Should this situation
arise, it’s important not to force the robot into the debris.
TIP: If you hear a loud clicking sound and the auger stops spinning,
the auger’s clutch has slipped. Reverse Looj if this occurs.
Once you are clear of the debris, proceed with your cleaning.
To handle heavy clogs, leave the auger on and drive the robot slowly
forward until the auger contacts the clogged debris. Allow the auger to eject
a small amount of debris. If Looj gets stuck or if the clutch slips, reverse
direction and allow the auger to clear away the debris it has loosened.
Repeat this process until the clogged debris is fully cleared.
TIP: Note that one direction will spin the debris away from
the house and the other direction will spin the debris
onto the roof. Test the spin direction before driving the
robot down the gutter.
