We own several CRB machines and we clean the machines and the brushes without removing the brushes from the machine. Here is how; get a piece of scrap cut pile carpet 3'x3' or 4'x4' lay it on your driveway and take a garden hose and lay it down on the lower edge spraying onto the carpet. As the hose is running onto the carpet, take the CRB while running and act as though you were cleaning that piece of carpet. About 2 minutes and Presto you have a clean machine and brushes. When done, set the machine in the carrier while drying. Hey, it works for us.
