Wand or Floor Nozzle Blockage / Air Leak
Vacuum runs but produces no suction at the floor head, while suction at the handheld inlet is normal

Possible Causes
Clogged wand tube, Blocked swivel neck on floor head, Cracked wand, Loose wand-to-head connection
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Remove the battery before clearing blockages.
- Test handheld suction: Remove the wand and floor head. Turn on the vacuum (briefly) to confirm strong suction at the handheld inlet.
- Inspect wand: Look through the wand against a light source. Use a flexible rod to push out any debris.
- Check floor head neck: Inspect the swivel neck where the wand connects for clogs or trapped objects.
- Inspect for cracks: Look for splits or holes in the wand or head that could cause air leaks. Replace damaged parts.
- Secure connections: Reattach the wand and head firmly until they click. Test suction again.
