How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug and remove the tank before working.

  • Inspect tank valve: Turn the clean water tank upside down and check the spring-loaded valve. Ensure it moves freely and seals when released.
  • Clean seating area: Wipe the tank base and the machine's tank receiver to remove grit or fibres that can prevent sealing.
  • Replace O-ring: If the valve O-ring is flattened or cracked, replace it with a compatible seal.
  • Check for cracks: Fill the tank and place it over a sink to look for hairline cracks. Replace the tank if leaking.
