Don't use this stuff. I used it and it never really dried. It stayed sticky for for 2 months. Try elmers epoxy.

On the right side at the top there is a hole, stick the plastic end in there. Let me know if this doesn't work.

Hi! I recently experienced a similar problem! I had removed all the filters (there are three removable ones - two foam and one white paper), washed them all, cleaned everything off the beater bar/roller, shook out the tube/hose, even unscrewed the bottom and cleaned out whatever I could find there too! Still, as soon as I turned it on, it was going to red! Grrrrrr I FINALLY found the problem. You might have already checked this, but just in case, sharing it here. It might help you or someone else. When looking at back of the vacuum, on the right side, BEHIND the main tube/hose, you can see the tube attach to the black vacuum base which feeds into the clear body where the dirt goes in. I could not see any clogs anywhere. BUT - this part of the tube/hose COMES OFF - it is easy to overlook, but it twists and releases. I did that as a last resort, and found my problem! There was a piece of paper in there, and all kinds of dirt and hair (we all shed some and have two cats) were packed pretty solid behind the paper! It took a tool like a crochet hook to get it all out and unpacked! (I have a metal "tube turner" for sewing, which is what I used, but anything super thin and long can work, as long as you do not go THROUGH the hose.) I took an amazing amount of junk that had not come out when shaking the hose, cleaning things, even taking the rest of the vacuum apart... it hides in that last curve of the hose! I hope this helps someone else, because this is a great little powerhouse of the vacuum that is perfect for our little townhouse. But the clogging does happen sometimes, and I've now found the FIRST place I'll look, instead of the dead last! ;-)

warm the barrel in a hot bath for a minute or two then tap it on a hard surface to dislodge it. That should work.

Just put a box wrench (not adjustable) on it and it should come out - Mine was installed in '97 and I first removed it a only couple years ago you may try PB Blaster penetrating oil - let it soak for a couple hours - that stuff works wondersremember to clean it (PB) all off before reassembly unless you want to taste PB for a whileHere's another tip - put a small amount of silicon grease on the threads when you put it back together (also for any other plumbing jobs) - that makes it much easier next time around.

Hi Rose - there are no instructions included, but the hole size is 2 1/8 inches. You can purchase a hole saw (usually used for cutting holes in doors) at your local hardware store. You want to center were the hole is to be cut and make sure it will clear the bottom interior floor of the tub. The gaskets go on either side of the tub once the hole is cut and usually hand tightening is enough to keep it from leaking, but you might need to make it slightly tighter for a really good seal. Hope this helps.

Instead of drilling I just use one of the old refill needles heat it up nice over the stove or propane torch and just push it through the plastic like butter and there's no plastic chips falling in from drilling it and then I use a small and short sheet metal screw to seal the hole so the next time it goes empty and needs to be refilled again I just unscrew the sheet metal screw. It's so simple. Give it a try. Just don't overtighten the sheet metal screw or u might crack the plastic. You can also use aluminum tape. I hope this helps out.

Either a sprayer or a soap dispenser should work in the 4th. (furthest to the right) hole.

My tub was actually up against the wall. You may have to put some type of spacer in between the mounts and the wall.

I know somebody that removed it from fiberglass - they used a plastic paint scrapper - it took some effort but it did not damage it. May be able to use wd40 or some other adhesive remover to make it easier. I have not tried to remove mine yet and I have a porcelain tub.

Most likely the pipe ! Either the pipe is not fully inserted into the fitting. or it has a slight imperfection, or a sliver of plastic or other foreign material. Use the sharkbite tool to take it apart, clean it good ,. both pipe and fitting and try again. Good luck!

You might insert a small drill or machine thread tap or an awl, which is tapered, into the nozzle and when it's tight, press the release button on the top front of the waterflosser and extract the broken tip. Also you might try bending a kink in the shank of a paper clip above ii's tip and inserting same into the tip vent hole until it is a snug fit and then press the release and lift out the broken tip.And as always........ have a nice day.The Grumpy Grouper

my tub is right against the wall but i'm still ordering it. I'm going to use a waterproof command hook on the side of the tub and hook that small metal piece....and then hopefully move later lol

Try putting it in the bath tube under water and see if there is bubbles coming out

Send it back. The hole just gets bigger. I had this happen to another mesh float. I had to throw it out.
