Possible Causes

Impact damage from drops, Stress cracks around bin mount, Worn or missing rubber seals, Misaligned housing clips

Safety first: Remove the battery before inspecting the housing.

Steps:

Inspect for cracks: Look closely around the bin mount, handle, and motor housing for visible cracks or gaps.
Check seals: Inspect rubber gaskets around the bin and cyclone. Replace if flattened, torn, or missing.
Reseat housing: If the body has removable covers, ensure all clips and screws are properly engaged.

Significant cracks in the main body usually require replacement of the housing or the entire handheld unit to restore suction efficiency.
