How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit and remove both tanks. Do not operate while leaking.
- Identify leak source: Fill the clean water tank and reinstall. Without plugging in, observe the base for drips to locate the general area.
- Open housing: Remove side or bottom panels to access internal hoses and fittings.
- Inspect hoses and clamps: Look for splits, pinholes, or loose clamps on hoses from the tank to pump and pump to nozzle. Tighten clamps and replace damaged hoses.
- Check tank seal: Examine the rubber seal at the tank outlet. Replace if cracked, flattened, or hardened.
