Troubleshooting
Broom head feels loose on the handle
Ensure the handle is fully inserted into the socket. If necessary, remove the handle and re-secure with a self-tapping screw through the pre-drilled hole.
Bristles are not effectively sweeping debris
Check for any blockages or debris stuck within the bristles. Ensure the broom is being used with appropriate force for the type of debris. For very heavy or caked-on dirt, a second pass might be needed.
Socket appears damaged or cracked
Inspect the socket for any signs of damage. If cracked or broken, the broom head may need to be replaced to prevent further damage or injury.
