Keep mains diagnosis behind those serviceable checks. Verify the push-button self-sealing bag door closes without pinching the collar.Compare lift-off suction with floor pickup. Shared loss starts at bag, filters, hose, and pod airway; lower-only loss points to base inlet, brush, belt or head connection before mains power.
