Removing the ROBY float
Xeos does not recommend removing the ROBY’s float unless it is necessary. The unit can be used
and disassembled while the float remains on.
1.
Using a pair of internal snap ring pliers, stretch the top ABS brace until it can be slid off
the ROBY’s top cylinder.
2.
Repeat step one for the bottom brace.
3.
After both braces have been removed, the float can be slid off the ROBY.
