Here is a list of things that are not recommended to be collected with a pilot.

  • Liquids, sticky objects, wet food. Using a scoop to collect liquids can be dangerous because this device uses electricity. It is better to use a rag or paper towel to collect liquids. It is also worth avoiding the use of a squeegee to suck wet food from animals;
  • A large amount of hair. Hair can wind up on the pilot's shaft and interfere with its operation. It can also block the dust filter and reduce suction power. A small amount of hair can be collected with a comb, but it is better to use a broom for this purpose;
  • Glass. Shards of glass can damage the pilot hose or puncture the vacuum bag. It is better to collect broken glass using special hacks to avoid injuries;
  • Construction dust and flour. Fine dust, such as construction dust or flour, can quickly clog the vacuum cleaner's filters and reduce its effectiveness during the next cleaning;
  • Coffee. Beans or coffee grounds that end up in a garbage bag can absorb moisture, which can lead to mold growth. In addition, coffee grains or soil particles from under flower pots can clog the filter and cause the motor to malfunction.
