Is there any way to increase the drag on fluid base attachment? Mine seems to move very loosely and does not have much resistance.

Mine was the same way but it was not the fluid joint. There's a screw (the included tool fit) that adjusts the entire units attacment. It might be loose.

I don't think you can, but I haven't looked at it in a while. I would contact the company. You might have a defective one.

You can tighten the screws at the base of the monopod which would effectively make it more difficult to move it around on its feet. It won't be very smooth for movement, however.

This has not been a problem with my machine. Perhaps it was the tape? There is no way to make an adjustment that I know of. Good luck!

Try adjusting you weights. and make sure you are not storing the hoses in one piece which causes curves in the hose and it has a tendency to follow the curve in the hose. What worked for me was to adjust the weight periodically.

l put Vasaline on cone end to make it slide on. easier to point where you twist it to lock in place. Regards, Don☺.

Hmm. It seemed like mine loosened up once it was a little warm. I'm not sure though. Did you ask the distributor for feedback?

I have developed the same problem ! Instead of pushing it in directly, try sliding it in from the bottom of the position.I can get it to stay like that, but it doesn't go in all the way. Still, it stays in place although not perfectly.If i find another solution, i will let you know.

Look closely - this is addressed in the instructions - has something to do with dismounting the hose reel and setting it on its' side and cycling it, as I remember it. Also, maybe you could try to pull out more hose and try again. Short hose pulls are under less tension.

Lube the threads and work it a little. Mine was the same and it tightened right up. Works fine now.

I guess not enough pressure (though mine works on almost no pressure) or somehow defective...maybe return and get a new one.

I tested mine and it is smooth and snug from fully extended to retracted. Sounds like you might be missing the 0-ring on the body of the pen. Get a new one...

Hi Deb! Well, actually I think there are people that have tried it adapting some sort of connection, but I don't recall what they've used. The SkimmerMotion was designed specifically to be used with the majority of the standard suction cleaners out there. Maybe it's an "at your own risk" decision? Sorry I couldn't be of much more help!

It is difficult to turn and change the pressure settings. I just make sure that I'm holding the head tightly, it does take a little bit of strength to turn and I've worried about breaking mine but once it gets going it moves pretty easily.

I would look for a biiger pump. It mifht do it but the flow wont be very strong

Just do not tighten it on all the way. It will raise the water level and allow more water to flow out.

I had the same problem until my husband attached the wand unit for me. I was being too gentle and it wasn't making a good connection. He used more force and it began working much better. I do not have this vacumn anymore, however, because of other design flaws it has.

Mine stuck so hard it collapsed the tube. I would try to move the hose around. I didn't really get mine going either

Hi Mona, Make sure that the main unit or the charcoal filter inside is not in backwards I did this once and it drove me nuts late at night. I came back in the morning and found my problem. ALso the cover should slide without any resistance.
