Possible Causes

Weak suction, Blocked nozzle air slots, Incorrect nozzle height, Over-application of solution

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug before cleaning the nozzle.

  • Clear nozzle slots: Clean the suction slots in the nozzle with a brush.
  • Check suction performance: Verify that suction is strong at the nozzle; if not, troubleshoot suction issues (filters, hose, tank seals).
  • Adjust technique: Make slower, overlapping dry passes without spraying to remove more moisture.
  • Avoid over-wetting: Use the recommended amount of solution and avoid holding the trigger continuously in one spot.
