MOTOR PROTECTION
SYSTEM
Motor Protector
This vacuum has a motor protector
by-pass
valve which automatically
opens to provide
cooling air to the suction motor when a clog
prevents the normal flow of air to the motor.
If the by-pass valve opens to prevent motor
overheating
and possible damage
to the
vacuum, you will notice a change of sound
as air rushes through the valve opening.
To correct problem: See the TROUBLE-
SHOOTING chart.
NOTE: The motor
protector may open
when using
attachments
or when
cleaning new carpet,
due to reduced airflow
by the attachments
themselves
or by new
carpet fuzz filling the
bag quickly.
See the
TROUBLESHOOTIN_G
section.

Note: Do not block motor protector.
Thermal Protector
This vacuum has a thermal protector
which
automatically
trips to protect the vacuum
from overheating.
If a clog prevents
the
normal flow of air to the motor, the thermal
protector turns the motor off automatically
to
allow the motor to cool in order to prevent
possible damage to the vacuum.
During this
time the headlight
remains on.
To correct problem:
If this occurs, turn the
vacuum off and unplug the power cord from
the outlet to allow the vacuum
to cool and
the thermal protector to reset. Check for
and remove clogs, if necessary.
Also check
and replace any clogged filters. Wait
approximately
thirty (30) minutes and plug
the vacuum in and turn back on to see if the
motor protector has reset. The motor
protector will not reset if the vacuum
is not
turned off even if the vacuum
has cooled
down.
AGITATOR OVERLOAD
PROTECTOR
The agitator has
built-in protection
against motor
damage
should the
agitator jam. If the
agitator slows down
or stops, the agitator
overload
protector
shuts off the agitator.
The suction motor
will continue to run.
Agitator
Overload
Reset Button
To correct problem: Turn off and unplug
vacuum, remove obstruction,
then press
reset button.
To reset: Push in the agitator overload
protector
button.
PERFORMANCE INDICATOR
SOME
MODELS
When the unit is running with normal air
flow, the light on the performance
indicator is
off. The light comes on whenever the airflow
becomes
blocked.
If that occurs, check the
disposable
dust bag, motor safety filter and
other possible clog locations shown in
CLOG REMOVAL.
To correct
problem: See
the
TROUBLE-
SHOOTING
chart.
NOTE: The
light may also
come on
when using
attachments,
due to
reduced
airflow
through the
attachment.
