Problems With Scooba 230
The Scooba 230 works well.
But on stopping its cycle, the dirty water just floods out.
If you pick up the unit, the leaking stops.
I have changed the cleaning plate, filled the 'empty' tank with the 'fill' tank unfilled and there is no leak untill you put it down, i.e when the wheels are pressed upwards, it leaks like crazy.
I vacuumed the entire robot with a low sucktion hand vacuum cleaner , cleaned all sensors and more.
Any ideas? Looks like I will have to send it to the Swiss outlet and hope they can fix it?
I cant claim another one as the warranty is not valid here in Europe. I wanted the small version as its perfect for my needs. Here they only sell the combination one, far too big to get into the problem spaces.
Nice site! Probably the best site of its kind I have come across
Have a nice day
Andre
