Our cleaner doesn't vacuum up the water leaving a puddle.
1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
March 22, 2025
The Tennant T300 cleaner may not vacuum up water properly, leaving a puddle, due to several possible reasons:
1. Vacuum Squeegee Not Lowered – If the vacuum squeegee is not in the correct position, it will not effectively suck up water. 2. Blocked or Dirty Debris Tube – Debris may be clogging the tube, preventing proper suction. 3. Pinched or Closed Tube – If the tube is pinched or not properly open, water may not be drawn in. 4. Excessive Travel Speed – Moving too fast can reduce cleaning effectiveness and leave water behind. 5. Full or Dirty Debris Tray – If the debris tray is full, it may block proper suction. 6. Improper Maintenance – The machine should be cleaned and checked after each use to ensure all components function correctly.
Checking and addressing these issues can help restore proper vacuuming performance.

Questions and answers
Our cleaner doesn't vacuum up the water leaving a puddle.
The Tennant T300 cleaner may not vacuum up water properly, leaving a puddle, due to several possible reasons:
1. Vacuum Squeegee Not Lowered – If the vacuum squeegee is not in the correct position, it will not effectively suck up water.
2. Blocked or Dirty Debris Tube – Debris may be clogging the tube, preventing proper suction.
3. Pinched or Closed Tube – If the tube is pinched or not properly open, water may not be drawn in.
4. Excessive Travel Speed – Moving too fast can reduce cleaning effectiveness and leave water behind.
5. Full or Dirty Debris Tray – If the debris tray is full, it may block proper suction.
6. Improper Maintenance – The machine should be cleaned and checked after each use to ensure all components function correctly.
Checking and addressing these issues can help restore proper vacuuming performance.
