What to do if my Vacmaster Vacuum Cleaner won't turn on?

J
Jason JacksonAug 4, 2025
First, ensure the Vacmaster Vacuum Cleaner is properly connected to a power source and that the fuse is working. Check if the container is full and empty it if necessary. Make sure the power switch is in the ON position, indicated by the 'I' button on the power head. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the power cord, switch, or motor may have a functional fault. In this case, have the damaged part checked by qualified personnel or contact the after sales helpline.

Why does my Vacmaster VWM1518R have low suction?

M
Megan GarnerAug 18, 2025
If your Vacmaster Vacuum Cleaner has low suction power and is making unusual noises, start by checking for blockages in the nozzle, hose, and container inlets. Also, the cartridge filter might be clogged with fine dust, so clean or replace it. If you've been vacuuming liquids, empty the container and ensure the float valve under the filter can move freely. For models with remote control, reset it following the instructions. If the remote control battery is dead, replace it.
