Why is the dirty water vacuuming insufficient in my Nilfisk-Advance Floor Machine?
- R
  Rebecca WardAug 16, 2025
  Insufficient dirty water vacuuming in your Nilfisk-Advance Floor Machine can occur due to several reasons: * The recovery tank might be full, requiring you to empty it. * The vacuum grid might be clogged, or the float is closing, so you should clean the vacuum grid. * The container with debris collection grid is clogged, requiring cleaning. * The hose may be disconnected from the squeegee, so you should connect it. * The squeegee might be dirty, or the squeegee blades are worn or damaged, so you should clean the squeegee or overturn/replace the blades. * The tank cover is not properly closed, or the gasket is damaged, so you should correctly close the cover or clean/replace the gasket.

The brush motors are overloaded, so use less aggressive brushes and/or avoid working with extra pressure turned on. 2. There are foreign materials (tangled threads, etc.) preventing the brushes from rotating, so clean the brush hubs.
