Einleitung

    • Flip the Neato on its back so the bottom is exposed

    • Unscrew the seven screws.

    This should be unnecessary. You should only need to remove the four screws from the battery doors. In this picture, the two lower-right screws are for one of the battery doors and the other is on the other side of the robot, under the demonstrator’s hands.

    It is EIGHT screws, not SEVEN.

    There are FOUR screws for the battery compartment panels (TWO for each).

    FOUR screws for the fan access panel.

    The panels are independent. There is no need to open the battery compartments to access the fan, nor vice versa.

    • Lift the panels to reveal the batteries, brush and fan

    • There should be little to no resistance during this step, do not continue if the pieces do not separate easily

  3. vfEqiP2CSRvEjObU

    • The Neato's core components are now exposed and ready to be cleaned and/or replaced.

  4. FiBUj1oKHeERaBHs

    • Pinch and pull the white connector to disconnect the battery from the device

    • Failure to complete this step could cause electric shock or later complications

    • Lift and remove the battery from the cavity

    • If replacing the battery, make sure to use proper disposal methods.

  5. POeqOIJaIsUlh1rr

    • Remove the 17 visible screws and the 2 covered/hidden screws near the battery compartments that connect the bottom to the top of the Neato robot.

    I have a neato signature, have followed to this point removing every screw listed but cannot remove the lid. Every video I have watched shows the top and base coming apart easily. Can anybody help

    There are two white paper seals and two more screws under them

    There are two white squares covering two more hidden screws. They are just paper, or something similar, so just poke through with your screw driver.

    After you take off the 17 screws (circled in the picture) in addition to the 2 under the tamper evident seals, there are 4 deep along the front edge.

    • Lift and separate the two pieces to give access to the Distance Sensor

    • There may be slight resistance during this step, make sure to lift the pieces straight rather than an angle. Lifting at an angle may cause pieces to catch, causing resistance

    • Remove the four screws on the lidar sensor.

    • After the wires are fully disconnected lift the motor away to reveal the motherboard
