Once you get the grommets....

Put some wd 40 on them....

We did that and have had no issues since....

Mine didn't have any when I bought it used.... I just use a velcro strap through the allen wrench handle and around the Zipper handle... That also keeps the surgical tweezer, Stainless Steel brush for cleaning the jets and hole glide poker on it...

I thought everyone knew you Can Not clean residential with a Zipper....











Well that is what one of the industry Guru's tells everyone (even tho he is trying to buy one on Facebook)

What the H is a gromit and why does the Zipper need one?

He's right and wrong. You CAN clean residential with the Zipper, but it's much more trouble than it's worth, unless you're cleaning particularly dirty carpet. We have a bad habit here of loving everything beyond all reason.

A little black polyurethane on both the grommets and the black covers on the holding plate. They will never fall out or off again.

I ended up just velcro strapping my HEX tool to the zipper
