How often does one usually change brushes or tracks on a dolphin S300 and what does one look for? I probably run it 3-5 times for 2 hrs a week and its . I am not sure I am getting the same level of brushing I used to get and its a little over a year old.
 
Difficult to say, i run mine every day for a full cycle, 2 years and still going. If you notice the robot not climbing walls or tracks skipping, i would be changing it.
 
Take a close look at the rubber brushes to see if the connection strips are failing or the brush flaps are torn. See if the track treads are worn down. These parts are wear items and easy to replace. Also open up the impeller guard and clean out any debris wound on the shaft.
 
While the tracks look a bit worn, it still climbs no problem. I guess its more the brushing I wonder about. When I use a real pole brush, I get more haze than I used to... The “vac suction” works fine on visible stuff.
