Possible Causes
Faulty upright position switch, Stuck actuator lever, Shorted control PCB, Misadjusted linkage
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the machine immediately if the brush runs when upright.
- Check for mechanical sticking: Move the handle between upright and reclined positions several times (with machine unplugged) to see if the actuator lever moves freely.
- Inspect pivot area: Look for debris or broken plastic around the pivot that could prevent the upright switch from being triggered.
- Do not use until fixed: A brush running in upright position can damage flooring and is a safety concern.
- Professional repair: The upright switch or PCB will likely need replacement. This requires opening the body and should be done by a technician.
Do not attempt to bypass the upright interlock; it is an important safety feature.
