Possible Causes

Broken or missing wheels, Cracked chassis frame, Deformed container base, Loose wheel axles

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Remove the battery and place the vacuum on a stable surface before inspection.

  • 1. Inspect wheels and casters: Check for missing, cracked, or seized wheels. Replace damaged wheels with Festool-compatible parts.
  • 2. Check axles and mounts: Ensure wheel axles and caster mounts are tight and not bent.
  • 3. Examine chassis: Look for cracks or warping in the base or frame. Replace the chassis or container if structural damage is found.
  • 4. Test stability: After repairs, test the vacuum on a flat surface to confirm stable operation.
