SUCTION MOTORRESET

SUCTION MOTORRESET

The suction motor reset will shut the motor off if air- flow is sufficiently restricted to cause motor overheat- ing and possible damage to the vacuum cleaner.

Once the reset goes into effect, the vacuum cleaner will not operate for approximately 10 minutes. At this time the unit should be unplugged from the electri- cal outlet and checked for clogging. Follow the instructions under "CLOG REMOVAL" on page 15.

Even though dust bags may appear to be not full, there are times when airflow through them may

become severely restricted. Thiscan happen from picking up fine dust particle materials such as plaster dust, talc or other powders. These materials can clog the pores in the bag and close off airflow, causing the reset button to go into effect. If this condition exists, the bag must be changed. See "BAG CHANG- ING" instructions staffing on page 9.

When all airflow passages are clean, the dust bag

has been checked to be satisfactory, and approxi- mately 10 minutes have passed, use a pencil, ball point pen tip or similar item to push the reset button back in. See nstruct ons n the Ilustrat on to the right. The reset button must be pushed in for the vacuum cleaner to resume operation.
