MOTOR PROTECTION SYSTEM

Motor Protector

This vacuum cleaner has a motor protector

by-pass valve which automatically opens to
provide cooling air to the vacuum cleaner
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 cleaner,

you will notice a change of sound as air

rushes through the valve opening.

To correct problem; See the TROUBLE­
SHOOTING section.

NOTE: The motor

protector may open

when using

attachments or
when cleaning new
carpet, due to
reduced airflow
caused by the

attachments

themselves or by

new carpet lint filling
the dust bin quickly.
See the TROUBLESHOOTING section.
