How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Remove the battery before handling structural parts.

Inspect latches:

  • Check the plastic locking tabs on the wand and accessories for cracks or missing pieces.
  • Clean any dust or debris from the latch areas.

If tabs are broken or worn, replace the affected wand or accessory. Do not use tape or makeshift fixes, as a loose connection can cause damage or injury.
