#4 Does it spit dirt out from behind it on hardwoods?
If your unit is spitting out dirt and debris, it may be that the brushroll and nozzle head are too high off the ground to provide adequate suction. It may also be possible there is a clog in the system, which is causing loss of suction. Here are some helpful tips to improve the suction: check to see if the filter or nozzle is clogged. Turn off the unit and disconnect the nozzle to remove the debris. Also check the hose for any built up debris, and use the handle of a broom to remove. After checking the hose, please be sure to securely connect the hose to your vacuum.

Rinse the filter with water until the water runs clear and allow a dry time of 24-36 hours. – OR – We recommend checking to see if your filter is clogged.
