Sears Vacuum Cleaner - Manual (Page 12)

SUCTION MOTOR RESRT
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. This can 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 starting 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 instructions in the illustration to the right.
The reset button must be pushed in for the vacuum
cleaner to resume operation.
