Einleitung

This guide will teach you how to replace the vacuum motor of your POWERbot. This can be done to restore the suction strength of the vacuum.

Werkzeuge

Schritt 1

Turn off the emergency switch located at the bottom right of the POWERbot.

Schritt 2

Insert the plastic opening tool under the black cover, near the Samsung logo on the back of the device, and partially pry open.

Schritt 3

Slide the plastic opening tool to the left, remaining under the black cover, until two left side pins have been detached. Then slide the plastic opening tool to the right until two right side pins have been detached.
Grab the two clips near the front of the black cover, on in front of each wheel. Pull the clips away from the wheels.

I needed to replace the left drive wheel on a SR20J9250U model. It is largely the same and many parts have VR9000H stamped on them. I will add any differences as I see them.

For this step, there are three clips plus the clip in front of the wheel on each side. First clip is approx 6 cm from the centre at the back. Next is approx 11cm from the first clip and the third is 11 cm from the second clip (almost above the wheel). Then there is the clip in front of each wheel that you can see.

Schritt 4

Remove the black cover.

Schritt 5

Insert the plastic opening tool under copper-colored cover, under the words "CycloneForce," and pry open, applying a small rotation, until the two pins are released .
Grab the underside of the cover and lift upwards while pushing forward until the cover pops off.

Schritt 6

Remove the three 6mm Phillips #1 screws in the holes near the back of the device.

On my model SR20J9250J there is a forth screw on the right hand side I front of the vacuum motor that needs to be removed to lift the body off in step 10.

Schritt 7

Remove the 6mm Phillips #1 screw in the hole that was under the copper-colored vacuum cover.

Schritt 8

Flip the device over and remove the 6mm Phillips #1 screw in front of the left (from this perspective, right) wheel.

Schritt 9

Detach the wider circuit connector by pressing down gently on the left end of the clip and pulling the connector out.
Pull the connector out by the top and bottom of the white piece and not by the wires.

Schritt 10

Remove the top chassis from the POWERbot by grabbing the wheel covers and lifting upwards.

Schritt 11

Remove the three 5mm Phillips #1 screws in the holes around the vacuum motor.

Schritt 12

Remove the 5mm Phillips #1 screw on the peg to the right of the circuit board.

Schritt 13

Detach the largest circuit connector on the right side by pressing down gently on the right end of the clip and pulling the connector out.
Pull the connector out by the top and bottom of the white piece and not by the wires.
