Possible Causes

Worn locking tabs on wand, Broken latch button, Deformed plastic coupler, Debris in locking mechanism

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Remove the battery before working on mechanical connections.

  • 1. Inspect locking tabs: Look for broken or worn plastic tabs on the wand ends.
  • 2. Clean latch area: Remove dust and debris from the latch and coupler using a dry brush.
  • 3. Test fit with other components: If the wand is loose on both the main body and nozzle, the wand is likely worn and should be replaced.
  • 4. Do not use tape or glue as a permanent fix, as this can affect electrical connections and safety.
