Possible Causes
Brushroll set too low or bristles too stiff, Blocked floorhead wheels, High suction mode on thick carpet, Debris jammed in swivel neck
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Remove the battery pack and detach the floorhead.
Inspect moving parts:
- Check the front and rear wheels for hair and debris; clean thoroughly.
- Ensure the swivel neck moves freely.
Usage adjustments:
- Use a lower power mode on thick carpets to reduce suction drag.
- If your Salter model has a hard floor/carpet selector, set it appropriately.
If the brushroll or wheels are damaged or warped, replace the floorhead or the affected components.
