iRobot Roomba e5 Maintenance

Introduction

If your Roomba Robot e5 isn't working as it once was this guide is perfect for you. When used for long periods of time in a big house with pets and many debris, the vacuum starts wearing down. They then start cleaning less and less. When that happens, it is important to replace or clean the brushes and change the filter.

This guide illustrates how to replace the iRobot Roomba e5 (5134) Wi-Fi Connected Robot Vacuum: Edge Sweeping Brush, two Multi-Surface Brushes and the Dust Bin filter.

Before beginning, make sure you have a wide and flat space (preferably a wide table) that can get dirty. When disassembling some parts it is very likely dust and dirt will fall off from the vacuum, particularly in Step 3.
