Carpet cleaner head bounces or chatters on certain rugs

Safety first: Unplug the machine before adjusting settings.

• Raise brush height: Increase the brush height setting to reduce aggressive contact with the rug.
• Reduce suction: If your SEBO has variable suction, lower it when cleaning lightweight rugs.
• Secure rug: Place a non-slip underlay beneath very light rugs to prevent them from lifting.
• Check glides: Replace worn glide strips to allow smoother movement over delicate rugs.

Persistent chatter can damage delicate rugs; adjust settings or use a gentler tool if needed.
