I have fitted it correctly. It works fine though, but looks like there's a gap. But then again, it's probably just me.

I've just refurbed a DC07 and the switch cover has a tiny gap in it when fitted. Is it fine to use? The cyclone fits.oerfectly.Any suggestions? As it's frustrating me.

Good day.
Does anyone know if it is possible to get a replacement or compatible wand (or wand with hose) for a Dyson DC46 (I think it is the DC47 for you in the UK?).  I am having a similar issue as another member whereas the powerhead cut intermittently when the hose swiveled in a certain direction (ours only worked when twisted to the right).
Any direction on a possible replacement or if it can be fixed would be greatly appreciated. I know it is an older vacuum but it has been great and the size and weight is perfect for our home.
Thank you in advance for any advice.

Replaced the bushes, no better…

Got my eye on a 410-42/2 from an S6220

Can anyone tell me if it is compatible?

I believe the 408-42/2 is 1600w and the 410-42/2 is 1400w

Hi

Thanks for getting back to me. I'll be honest after no-one repsonded after the first couple of weeks, I thought it was very much a case of no-one knew what else to suggest.

Since posting that though, after using my X1.1 a few more times, it now appears to be fine, and I'm wondering if there could have been an element of user error.

Our carpet is a reasonably deep pile, however, the high traffic areas are starting to get a little compressed and, on reflection, it was those areas it appeared to be struggling with to properly 'comb' the pile. I think it was a case of the self height adjust wasn't quick enough to adjust itself as the vaccum changed from unworn pile to the more worn pile if you get me, which was previously being made worse by the worn brush roller. The new brush roller and slowing down a bit has solved ther issue.

Hopefully onto another 13 years of fault free vacuuming
