What do to if keeps spitting things out even if new bag is in?

Most likely the tube from the head to the dust bag has a clog. Look behind the brush roller; if you see a clog you may be able to clear it with a length of stiff wire. Or maybe the bag is full and needs changing.

Verify the bag is connected properly or that the bag is not cut. Was there some shipping spacers that you were to remove before use? Look at the owner's manual again. Good Luck

Check the hose for clogs. This problem is generally caused by the power nozzle brush running, but there's no suction to pick up what it sweeps to the hose, so debris just keeps getting scattered.
Disconnect both ends of hose. Drop a marble or similar small item down one end of hose and lift hose until the item comes out other end. If it doesn't, there's a clog. You can try to clear it by connecting the hose to the exhaust port, sticking other end in a plastic garbage bag, and turning on vacuum. That should clear it.
If the marble does roll out, another possibility is a leaky hose, one with cracks, holes, and similar things that would cause a leak.
There are other things that could cause a loss of suction, but these are the most common.
A bad switch is also possible, but less likely.

Check to see if bag (or if not bag then chamber is full).

Check to see if filter is clean.

If your vacuum has a bag, check to see that it is properly mounted.

Sorry I couldn't be more specific but it would help if you would specify what type of vacuum you have, whether you are using the hose or just the floor part, and where it is spitting the dirt from.

Hope this helps. If not, let me know the answer to the above questions and we'll go from there. Good luck!

I could not find the manual for the vacuum. I went to the Oreck site and found an online manual for my machine. I was able to take the hose apart and clean out the blockage. Also when I turned the base upside down and rotated the roller, I was able to clean that out too.

the bag indicator is either rusted out or broken. it only realy's on a little spring that bounces up and down so dont trust those things

The neck in your power head is likely clogged. Disconnect from the wand and look inside. Also check the wand.Since you have suction on the bare floor the hose is likely not blocked.

Hi
Either the filters are blocked, the hose is blocked or the indicator is faulty

Please leave feedback

Thanks

Once you change the bag, be sure to turn the machine off and back on to clear the fault. If it is the full bag light that is on, and not the "?" light, and you have a new bag in place, then you probably have a bad control valve. I would suggest finding the closest Aerus (formerly Electrolux) dealer and having them change it. It shouldn't be too expensive. If you have the "?" light illuminated, the bag probably isn't pressing the actuator like it should. When placing the new bag into the machine, be sure the bag top presses the small button in the lower right hand corner. Good Luck!

Due to the way carpets are made - new carpets sometimes have a lot of loose fiber. This is NORMAL and it may take 3-5 times to vacuum the carpet till it goes back to normal. Spitting out fuzz balls is a bit weird. Make sure you have the belt installed right - see video on www.goodvac.com. but the fact that belts keep breaking I am assuming that you have them installed right. Give it a few more belts and if the problem presists - let me know.
