Model issues and repair guidance
Separate turbine speed from motor suction before replacing the wide floor tool. With the tool removed, verify pull through the extension pipe; good pull directs cleaning to the RUG setting, tool throat, turbine chamber, roller ends, and internal drive, while weak pull directs service to the paper bag and electrostatic filter. Wrapped fibers can stop the roller without an electrical fault. If the lift-off body will not run alone, inspect the cord, switch, and motor feed.Test suction through the extension pipe with the turbine tool removed. Good pull isolates its RUG setting, throat, turbine, roller ends, and drive; weak pull points to bag and filter. A still lift-off body follows cord, switch, and motor feed, not a head wire.
