Fix Low Suction in 3 Steps:
- Dirty Tank Full Float Shut-Off: The dirty water tank features an internal float stack that automatically cuts off suction when dirty water reaches full capacity. Empty the dirty tank!
- Check Black Rubber Gasket: Ensure the black duckbill rubber gasket on the bottom of the dirty tank is clean, flat, and seated properly.
- Ensure Firm Hose Connection: Verify the clear plastic nozzle cover on the 3-inch tough stain tool is snapped securely into place.
