A detangling comb is intended to reduce wrapping, not eliminate every strand in the brush assembly. Check the parts that remain accessible for routine cleaning.

A practical checklist
- Switch off and remove the roller as the manual describes.
- Clear hair from permitted end caps and inspect the comb area.
- Check the side brush separately, then refit everything securely.
What this looks like at home
Long hair can collect at a roller end even when the main cylinder looks relatively clear.
Where hair can still collect
| Check | What matters |
|---|---|
| Main roller | Inspect the cylinder and removable end fittings. |
| Side brush | Check the hub separately from the main brush. |
| Intake | Look for a hair bridge even if the bin is not full. |
A mistake to avoid
Do not bend comb teeth or force a stuck roller to keep the machine running.
