bObsweep Standard and Pethair both come with their lithium-ion battery installed for you. But if you ever need to remove and replace the battery on either model, follow the walk through below.

These installation instructions apply to both bObsweep Pethair and Standard. Your battery cover may have small wheels as well, but that does not impact the battery assembly.
