How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the machine and allow it to cool fully before further inspection.

  • Check for blockages: Ensure suction and exhaust paths are clear and filters are clean.
  • Reduce load: Avoid pushing the machine too quickly or using it on very thick carpets without adjusting settings.
  • Inspect thermal cut-out: If the machine trips frequently under normal load, the thermal protector or motor may be failing and should be checked by a technician.
