• Your robot is equipped with rubber brushes.
We recommend that you change the brushes every two years.
- Turn the robot upside down, taking care not to rest it on the float arms (Figure 16).
- Separate the edges of the rubber brush and undo the holding strips, then remove the worn
brush (Zoom C).
- Position the new brushes with the little spikes outside. Thread the part without a strip bet-
ween the green fender and the brush holder (the strips have to be correctly positioned for
the robot to work properly) (Zoom D)
- Thread each strip into the notch provided and gently feed it through so that the heel comes
out at the other side of the notch.
Use a pair of scissors to cut the strips off less than 5 mm from the heel so that they are no
higher than the little spikes (Figure 17).

• Your robot is equipped with foam pads.
We recommend that you change the foam pads at the end of each season.
It is essential to replace them if their surface is smooth or worn.
- Turn the robot upside down, taking care not to rest it on the float arms (Figure 15).
- Spread the foam pads to reveal the foam pad fixing clips, then lift up the clips (using a lever
if necessary) and remove them, taking care not to open them out too far (Zoom A).
- Remove the worn foam pad and replace it with a new one, with the smooth side inwards
(Zoom B).
- With the edges of the foam pads upwards, position all the foam pad fixing clips in the
notches in the pads without actually clipping them in place.
- With the clips positioned in the notches, open them out slightly and push them in around
the pad holder such that the mark in the centre of the clips is located at the join in the pad.
- Retighten the pads, making sure the mark stays in the same place.
