I need to replace the tires on my 2002 original Roomba. I am unable to find any information on doing so for this old model. I have searched YouTube and contacted iRobot. I am unable to completely remove the underside cover to access the wheels and put on new tires. Does anyone have any resources, links, etc. Sincere thanks.
Hi @frustrateduser and welcome to the forum.
I had a quick look online, but I was not able to find clear instructions for Roomba Original 2002, only for younger models.
Could you take some photos of the bottom of the robot?
Thank you Igor_X for your kind reply. Here are 3 pics of my 2002 Roomba. I appreciate your help.
I have been struggling trying to get these 3 pictures on, so I hope they are viewable.
Thank you for the photos.
I only managed to find this cleaning instructions for original Roomba:
Maybe you just unscrew one side of the wheel, and then change the tire from that side?
Thank you again Igor_X,
I appreciate your time.
There does not appear to be access to the wheel on the side.
The underside needs to come off.
Perhaps if I was more mechanically inclined, I could figure this out.
Again, thank you for your time.
You are welcome.
If you don’t find any instructions, I would just start unscrewing all the screws until you come to the wheel
Be sure to take photos of the screws and where they should go when you start assembling again
