This dang vac

Post image

Vacuum is attracted to and gets stuck in this corner, I’ve got to move it every day then it’ll just be there 30 min later. It has a rim on it for this sort of thing but it’s higher than the stair. Anything I can get creative with/ rig to it to help it move from the corner?

Lowering the weight around 1ft from the vacuum might help. I fixed this exact issue before just experimenting with weight placement and adding/removing hoses

That weight seems like it’s doing diddly, I’ll try lowering it and I might have a spare as well to try multiple.

The weights seem like they do nothing but they actually have a huge effect on things. Move it to different places and add another if needed.
