When the dirty water tank is full, or the floorhead is not in contact with the floor, the float will shut off the suction on the machine. You will be able to hear if this has happened as the motor noise on the machine will increase. Once the float is activated, check if the dirty water tank is full and empty if necessary. If the dirty water tank is not full, continue to check for blockages.
