Introduction
After water is poured into the robot and passes through the filter, it is held in the tank. The tank is connected to the tubing and pump. This allows the robot to eject water from the nozzle onto the cleaning surface.
The tank might need to be removed, cleaned, and reinstalled if the robot is spraying dirty water. If the tank itself is damaged, it should be completely replaced.

Good guide. I would suggest doing steps 13-16 before step 12 and a small hook (bent wire, staple or the like) makes reattaching the spring (step 15) a lot easier. Otherwise, perfect.

I agree with moving steps 13-16 before step 12. Two reasons. First, it may be easier to remove the water tube from the tank while the tank is fastened in place. Second, removal of the motherboard case is an important building block step that provides access to free-floating platform, motors, tubing, and magnetic pads. I am roughing out a guide for removing the motherboard case built on this guide that you might be able to use. Feel free to edit it if you’d like.

it would be nice if someone has a way to add an external water bottle to give more water to the unit. Thanks
