Possible Causes
Damaged bin gasket, Misfitted filter, Cracked dust container, Missing O-ring on cyclone
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Remove the battery pack and work in a well-ventilated area to avoid inhaling dust.
Steps to stop dust leakage:
- 1. Inspect bin and seals: Remove the dust container and examine all rubber gaskets and O-rings for tears, flattening, or missing sections.
- 2. Check for cracks: Look closely at the bin and cyclone body for hairline cracks that could allow dust to escape.
- 3. Verify filter fit: Ensure the pre-motor and HEPA filters are seated correctly and that any locking rings are fully engaged.
Replace damaged seals or the entire dust bin/cyclone assembly with Hoover Candy OEM parts to restore proper filtration and containment.
