Poor Agitation / Brushroll Performance
Vacuum leaves debris on carpet even though suction seems strong
Advertisements
Possible Causes
Worn brush bristles, Incorrect height setting (on adjustable heads), Brushroll not spinning at full speed, Clogged nozzle air path
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Remove the battery and detach the nozzle.
- Inspect bristles: Check if the brush bristles are worn down or uneven. Replace the brushroll if bristles are flattened.
- Clean nozzle: Remove debris from the nozzle intake and air channels.
- Verify brushroll rotation: Reattach the nozzle and run the vacuum. Confirm the brushroll spins at full speed and does not stop easily when lightly touched with a tool (do not use fingers).
- Replace worn parts: If bristles are worn or the motor is weak, replace the brushroll or nozzle assembly.
