Cyclone Efficiency Loss
Vacuum loses suction only when the dust bin reaches half full; performance drops quickly.

Possible Causes
Clogged cyclone holes, Damaged cyclone cone, Fine dust buildup in cyclone chamber, Incorrect bin assembly after cleaning
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Remove the battery before servicing the cyclone.
- Disassemble cyclone: Remove the dust bin and separate the cyclone assembly according to the manual.
- Clean cyclone ports: Use a soft brush to clean the small holes and channels in the cyclone. Do not use sharp tools.
- Rinse if allowed: If the manual permits, rinse the cyclone with water and let it dry completely.
- Reassemble correctly: Ensure all cyclone parts are reinstalled in the correct order and fully seated.
Restoring cyclone airflow will help maintain suction as the bin fills.
