Check if the rubber seal has dislodged:
- If you're experiencing a loss of suction from your Ryobi 18V ONE+ HP Brushless Stick Vacuum, it may be because the dust canister's rubber seal is dislodged or loose.
- It's important that the canister seal is present and correctly seated, with both canister springs external to the seal’s placement.
- With the seal correctly positioned and both canister springs external and visible to its placement, your vacuum should return to effective and efficient cleaning.
- If your seal has become dislodged and is missing please follow below steps and a new seal will be sent to you from RYOBI customer service.
