Roborock S8 Not Mopping

QUICK ANSWER

Confirm the S8 is actually in a mopping mode.

S8 can run in Vacuum-only mode. Roborock also allows scrub intensity to control water flow, so verify the selected mode and water level first.

Robot vacuum mop and water delivery area — **Visual check:** confirm the mop cloth is mounted flat and that water reaches the mopping area during a short hard-floor test.
